In toxic cultures, being a workaholic is normalized and sacrificing sleep is glorified. The best way to get ahead is to burn out.
In healthy cultures, quality of life is expected and having a life is celebrated. You're encouraged to put your well-being above your work.
“The genius of man [woman] is hidden in the silence of [their] awareness, in that settled state of mind, from where every thought emerges...a creative silence where all possibilities reside.” — Maharishi Mahesh Yogi #quiettime 🤫
“Taking time to reflect...is crucial to leaders. The more dynamic and effective we want to be in our outer [leadership] life, the more still and composed we need to be within. “The eye of the hurricane is silent & still [and yet] — the center of all the energy.” — Kevin Cashman
“To give encouragement, to impart sympathy, to show interest, to banish fear, to build self-confidence and awaken hope in the hearts of others, in short - to love them and to show it - is to render the most precious service.” — Bryant Hinckley
Ultimately, a leader is not judged so much by how well they lead but how well they serve others. The higher you go, the more whom you have to serve. #leadership
