PROVEN RIGHT…PROVEN WRONG

If you need to be proven right, learning is a challenge.  If you’re eager to be proven wrong, learning is delightful.

Seth Godin’s Blog

REFLECTION:

  • Are you eager to be proven wrong or do you need to be right?
  • Most people want to be right… “proven wrong” is a real mind shift. 
  • What if you could embrace being proven wrong…  experience delight in learning. 
  • I wonder…

BEING KIND

Today I bent the truth to be kind, and I have no regret, for I am far surer of what is kind than I am of what is true.

Quote by Robert Brault

REFLECTION:

  • Do you speak the “truth” because you believe it is true regardless of the impact those words may have on another?
  • Do you “know for sure” your truth is THE truth? What if there is another perspective?
  • Would you be willing to find a kinder way to speak your ‘truth’?
  • Are you willing to bend the truth and be kind?
  • Think about it!

FIND THE BARRIERS

Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.

RUMI -13th Century Persian Poet

REFLECTION:

  • What barriers have you built against yourself?
  • How can you silence that inner critic even if it is only briefly?
