💖 On National Compliment Day, we emphasize the significance of telling the people in our lives how much we appreciate them. Check out Jake Carnes’ TEDxUGA 2017: Spectrum talk, where he highlights the importance of giving intentional compliments.

The motorcade accompanying Mrs. Carter made stops in Americus, Georgia, this morning. At Phoebe Sumter Medical Center, past and current members of Mrs. Carter’s Secret Service detail escorted the hearse. The motorcade is now headed to Atlanta.
A valuable skill in life is to be larger than the situation.
When you're feeling stressed or rattled, the situation is consuming you. It feels bigger and more important than it needs to be. This is when your emotions are likely to get the best of you.
But when you are larger than the situation, you can mentally "step outside and above it." Yes, there are problems to be solved. Yes, you need to take action. But the chaos is happening externally and you are still in the driver's seat internally. You're in control of the moment, the moment is not in control of you.

I shed many tears while typing up these heart-wrenching text messages sent and received by UNC students yesterday. Our campus was on lockdown for more than three hours.
Beyond proud of this cover and the team behind it.

Of all the things @polina_marinova talks about in the @ProfileRead, this it the one that sticks with me the most. So excited to read more in "Hidden Genius" out in a few days.
So excited for @polina_marinova and her new book, "Hidden Genius," coming out this week.
Her new book is keeping pretty fine company on the bookstore shelf, too!
I was just in Barnes and Nobles with @polina_marinova.
They had 5 copies of her new book on display prematurely.
I wouldn’t leave until she signed each one. It is the Coral Gables location.
First 5 people who get there will have signed editions. Enjoy :)
