If you want small changes in your life, work on your attitude. But if you want big and primary changes, work on your paradigm.

Taking initiative is a form of self-empowerment.

If we want to make relatively minor changes in our lives, we can perhaps appropriately focus on our attitudes and behaviors. But if we want to make significant, quantum change, we need to work on our basic paradigms.

I believe that there are parts to human nature that cannot be reached by either legislation or education, but require the power of God to deal with.

Empathy takes time, and efficiency is for things, not people.

Don't prioritize your schedule, schedule those priorities.

The more authentic you become, the more genuine in your expression, particularly regarding personal experiences and even self-doubts, the more people can relate to your expression and the safer it makes them feel to express themselves. That expression, in turn, feeds on the other person's spirit, and genuine creative empathy takes place, producing new insights and learnings and a sense of excitement and adventure that keeps the process going.
