One of yoga's great gifts to making is the discovery of the link that exists between energy, breath, and mind. As you change one, you also change the other two. If you excite one, the other two become excited and, conversely, if you calm one, the other two respond by becoming calm also.

If you get invited to be part of a team, don't look at it as a burden to get out of, but rather an opportunity to inspire, invigorate, and bring life to the team.

When it comes to continual improvement programs, the biggest mistake is a failure to launch, the biggest hurdle is culture.

With Lean Six Sigma, the tools are the easy part, changing organizational culture is the hard part.
