Sometimes we have expectations about others they simply can’t meet because they are not emotionally at a place where they can do that. Why do we get emotionally exhausted and what happens when we do?

Judgement as a defense against pain: If I admit that I was wrong about you, this means I was wrong about my image of myself. That image is a defense against my negative belief about myself. I don’t want to let go of my #judgement because it protects me from facing this #pain.

When we’re afraid, we try to implement changes through violence. Revolt is not true change because it’s a reaction. A reaction isn’t free from the problem it’s trying to solve, thus it’s part of the problem.

There is no separation between cause and effect. That’s why the way we feel about relationships can help us understand the purpose we’ve given them. In other words, what do they mean to us? What are they for?

The idea vs. the reality of #leadership: the #reality isn't as glamorous. Leaders are the last line of defense during a crisis. They get most of the credit when things go right, but they carry most of the burden when things go wrong. We're attracted to the idea, not the reality.
Just like children sometimes need fairytales, so do adults because it's an expression of love in a form they can accept without fear. The fairytale isn’t true, but the love that inspires it is true. The meaning is in the purpose, which is love.

Self-Awareness: Observing the mind and finding the purpose that’s in it by observing its effects in our lives, which are our thoughts, the way we think, the way we interpret information, what we do with the interpretation, our behaviors, our habits, our beliefs, etc.
"Being #kind to ourselves and being kind to others are the same. If we're not kind to ourselves, we can’t be kind to others because we can’t give what we don’t have. #Charity always begins within ... Extending will remind us that we have."

If we’ve been moving very fast in the wrong direction, the momentum could be so strong that just like a car, if we hit the brakes abruptly, we could end hurt up. It’s better to slow down gradually. Patience speeds up the process.

Unity of purpose is the basis for the mental health of an organization. Without this foundation, the organization will get weaker with each crisis until it falls apart and disappears. Mental health is primary because true wealth isn't in what we own but in our creative abilities.
Just because we can’t #help everyone perfectly, doesn’t mean we shouldn’t help whoever we can, however way we can, whenever we can. This includes taking #care of ourselves. Don’t allow #criticism... to prevent you from moving forward ...

If we reframe failure as lessons to be learned, learning becomes easier because we can easily accept feedback. Not all feedback is constructive, but we can’t know that if we’re not at least open to hearing it.
