The Art of Kindness in an Imperfect World

Let’s be intentional about how we define success for ourselves.

Recognizing we can’t control other people, the past or the future is a huge step toward eyes-wide-open acceptance of our situations.

Graduations symbolize and make real the transition from one state of our lives to another.

Don’t be so focused on showing up for your job that you forget to show up for the rest of your life.

Choosing how we see ourselves is within our power, even as we simultaneously work to overcome external challenges.

When goals and deadlines are treated as inflexible absolutes, they can lead people to behave in ways that don’t make sense.
