When working with people, assume good intentions.
When listening to people, interpret their words in a generous way.
You will occasionally get burned and mistreated by always assuming the best in others, but it is a far better way to live than the opposite.
If you suffer from anxiety, start by addressing your diet. I have a feeling you’ll be shocked by how much what you eat and drink drives your anxiety. It really does start in the gut.
"Before you throw more time at the problem, throw more focused action at the problem. You don’t need more time, you need fewer distractions."
