What if one day every motorist in Dar decided to compromise and let other vehicles or people pass where they are meant to? My guess is we may change the world that day.

Emotion regulation is not about denying your feelings. It's about choosing a constructive response.

Victimhood is blaming others for what you feel. Regulation is taking responsibility for how you react.

A key to resilience is expanding the space between stimulus and response.

@gauremdee Excruciating. No wonder some people eschew taxes and the whole formal system in favour of more practical realities.

Funny that when I was growing up, citizens trusted their leaders on stats. Now citizens need to fact check their leaders. What then do leaders bring to the table other than their personalities?

Sure they might die when the owner dies but that's not the same as "planning to die slowly". Growth is relative and definitions of success are different from one person to the next. Don't believe all the business books you read.

[piratefunk @piratefunk]

Recent chat highlight - "planning not to grow is planning to die slowly" seems to be a capitalist fallacy. I know several small, boutique, low footfall businesses that have lasted 30+ years in volatile economies and would never change a thing.

@KneeNjure Nice. These are the chords to "I'll see you when you get there" - Coolio.

@MikocheniReport Great game, and great adaptation!

Progress rests on the shoulders of unreasonable people.

Dear Savage Beast.

Throughout his career, Dr. Salim faced strong opposition and was ridiculed with insults. The hate mail he received after the successful campaign for restoration of the People's Republic of China lawful rights in the United Nations demonstrates the verbal abuse he endured during that period.

@june_jupiter_ We could make your website for you? https://t.co/GglvS8QFYq. Good luck for now! And no shade on Carrd - they have a beautiful product that we have used before :)

Mental health is not about being happy all the time. It's about learning to handle the full range of emotions.

It's normal to feel grief after loss, anger at injustice, and fear in danger.

Resilience lies in putting our feelings in perspective instead of letting them define us.

There is no validation greater than a happy customer who will go out of their way to tell you that they are happy.

@__AlexMkwizu Nothing wrong here. It is by design and we have all signed on to it. Read Trade is War by Yash Tandon. It is not how I like it but it's how governments have made it.

I'm sad that this would be seen as a crazy idea. It's how the world was once and can still be. Slow, patient, deep.

[Daniel Buck, “Youngest Old Man in Ed Reform” @MrDanielBuck]

Crazy idea:

Instead of $1000s spent on a Chromebook and iPad for every kid, schools buy 15 books per kid and invest the leftovers in real bookshelves and teacher salaries

We're entering an age of youth scarcity. Every major economy is running out of young workers. Every region except one: Africa. Why does this matter? 🧵
