"When working with people, assume good intentions.
When listening to people, interpret their words in a generous way.
You will occasionally get burned and mistreated by always assuming the best in others, but it is a far better way to live than the opposite."

Being an introvert is not about where you get your energy. It's how you handle stimulation.
Introverts are energized by people too. We’re just easily exhausted by loud parties, close talkers, and endless houseguests.
I'm not antisocial. I'm pro-quiet.

"Not being busy is a competitive advantage.
Most people are so strapped for time they can't take advantage of lucky opportunities or quickly resolve unexpected problems.
Maintain a bias toward action, but leave room for the unexpected."

Company culture matters and can make a big difference in employees’ motivation at work. To find out how organizational culture is linked to performance, participate in this global study, and receive the 2021 Global State of Culture Report early next year. bit.ly/3muFQNs

As psychology professor Dr. Barbara Fredrickson points out, generosity “create[s] chains of events that…trigger upward spirals that transform communities.” And who doesn’t want to be a part of that?

"Go smaller.
Can't learn an exercise? Reduce the range of motion.
Struggling to grasp a new concept? Break it down.
Failing to stick with a habit? Make it easy.
Master stage one, then advance."

"The most overlooked and underappreciated growth strategy is patience.
(More specifically, consistently producing great work over a long time horizon.)"

Generosity improves our well-being and reduces depression. In one study, people who helped their coworkers were more satisfied with their lives more than 30 YEARS LATER! I’m working on one generous act each day, big or small.

When feedback is delayed, abstract, and opaque, people rarely learn."

Businesses and schools praise multi-tasking, but research clearly shows that it reduces #productivity and increases mistakes. Try creating an interruption-free zone during the day—turn off your email, phone, and social-media sites—and see whether you get more done. #brainrules

Anger and frustration are rarely caused by other people's actions. They're caused by how you interpret their actions.
To change your reactions, question your explanations. You know what they did, but not why. New interpretations pave the way to new emotions.

Caring is not optional. It's a vital skill.
When surgeons lack compassion, they make 3x as many errors.
When doctors show compassion, patients heal faster—they're more likely to take prescribed medication, and less likely to need it post-surgery.
