Between stimulus and response there is a space.

In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.

When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves.

Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way.

It’s been a while... I’m sorry for that. Sometimes, the most important person to take care of is yourself. I needed the oxygen mask.

For many of us the idea of routine is akin to a loss of freedom. It feels as though we are bound to a boring daily repeat. No one wants to live "Groundhogs Day!" However, when you choose it and embrace it, I offer that it's what creates the powerful life you seek. Give it a shot, you lose nothing.

Rather than delude ourselves with the customs of a bygone era in which employees spent entire careers with one company, more hirers and hirees should come to the understanding that employment is one stop on a longer journey.

We are all highly curious as children and slowly but surely we lose this wonderment when our egos develop.

When we encounter adversity we make up stories about how curiousness equals lack of knowledge. And we don't want to appear dumb! So we stop asking questions.

But being curious feeds our brains, spurs creativity and it keeps us humble and social.
We like curious people. We like being asked questions.

“Leadership means unlocking the potential of others”
Carla Fiorina

Being that I'm a leadership coach, I'm quite interested in what future leaders are saying today, and so I follow the primary debates. As such, I came out of my slumber during this weeks side show, when Ms. Fiorina, about half way through, led a response with

So I googled the line to find out more about her “talking points” on the subject and this article came up. It's obvious she has studied under my mentors and one can see how it has affected who she is BEING as a candidate.

I'm not a conservative, nor do I pretend to support her leadership track record. However, I recognize her accomplishment as a woman in the male world of C-Suite Leadership. Again, I don't support her conservative views on many issues and still she stands out to me as Being a Leader.

See possibilities, not limitations. See possibilities in yourself. See possibilities in others. See possibilities in the circumstances around you. And you'll have an impact and make a difference, and when you do, people will take notice.
