Being a hard worker doesn't make you a good person.
Character is defined by your ethics, not just by your work ethic.
No matter how much drive and dedication you bring to the task, people won't fully trust you until you've shown generosity and integrity in the relationship.

In psychologically unsafe teams, people are afraid to ask for help.
In supportive teams, people are comfortable seeking help and get quick responses.
In generous teams, people proactively offer to help before anyone asks.

To overcome my many blind spots, I am always asking, "What am I missing?" and "can you help me?" I have given the people around me permission to speak truth into my life. It is the only way I can be protected from my blind spots.

As a servant leader, when you improve yourself in areas that are important to the people you lead, not only do you get better, but you make the person you serve better.

Good mentors help you follow their path. Great mentors help you navigate your own path.
Good mentors offer their advice. Great mentors help you expand your core group of advisors.

"Live in the moment" is good advice for a day but bad advice for a life.
Carpe diem isn't about focusing only on today. It's about seizing today to take charge of tomorrow.
Happiness is enjoying the present. Motivation is looking forward to the future.

If you do only what you know and do it very, very well, chances are that you won't fail. You'll just stagnate, and that's failure by erosion. True failure is a mark of accomplishment in the sense that something new and different was tried.

Don’t learn from experts who know the most. Learn from experts who communicate the most clearly.
Don’t learn from prodigies who were naturals in their fields. Learn from overachievers who overcame a lack of talent or opportunity.

Narcissistic leaders deny their weaknesses.
Humble leaders acknowledge their weaknesses.
Great leaders strive to overcome their weaknesses.

Why successful people are at greater risk of burnout. Without realizing it, they develop a "craving for the adrenaline that comes from continually challenging themselves." buff.ly/2JXO3Xe by @LindaBlairPsych

After receiving help, don't say "I owe you a favor." It reduces an act of kindness to an accounting transaction.
Instead of offering to repay a debt, signal a willingness to be generous:
"Let me know if I can ever be helpful" or "I stand ready to pay it forward."

Berkshire, Amazon & JPM made 2 smart, long term decisions today. They set their health care effort up as a non-profit and aim to avoid profit making as an incentive. And they appointed public health expert, author & compassionate progressive physician to head it in @Atul_Gawande. nitter.gq/berthacoombs/status/10…

Research has shown that the average mood watching a sitcom is mildly depressed, while the mood of reading an engaging book is the opposite. I love to make reading a daily habit #lifeenhancing and HIGHLY recommend it!! nitter.gq/fastcompany/status/100…
