Exercising leadership is an expression of your aliveness... But when you cover yourself up, you risk losing something as well. In the struggle to save yourself, you can give up too many of those qualities that are the essence of being alive, like innocence, curiosity, and compassion.

Your behavior reflects your actual purposes.

Yesterday's adaptations are today's routines.

What people resist is not change per se, but loss.

Worry not that your child listens to you; worry most that they watch you.

Stay diagnostic even as you take action.

Conflict is the primary engine of creativity and innovation. People don't learn by staring into a mirror; people learn by encountering difference.
