Strategy is important, but trust is the hidden variable. On paper you can have clarity around your objectives, but in a low-trust environment, your strategy won't be executed.
Consult the wisdom of your heart as well as your mind.
You think effectiveness with people and efficiency with things.
Do what is important, not what is urgent.
Basing our happiness on our ability to control everything is futile.
You can't talk your way out of a problem you behaved your way into!
