It's important to slow down, every now and then, for no other reason than to call someone to say 'Hi.' It doesn't have to be a long conversation. Just calling out of the blue does more to let someone know you still care about them than nearly anything else.

Simon SinekInstead of showing up to let everyone know how great we are, show up to find out how great everyone else is.
Simon SinekAny great and inspiring leader or organization that ever existed set out to do something completely unrealistic.
Simon SinekIf someone's performance is down we do not say, 'Hey pick up your things here.' We do not yell and scream at them, we say, 'Are you okay?' The idea of putting our financials goal aside for one minute to express empathy for the human being for that work and saying, 'Are you okay?' That is part of the sacrifice.
