Here’s some airport musing, an attempt at poetry with my coffee and some time in hand: The Power of Conversations One conversation at a time, It will heal, layer by layer, It resolves the doubts and the fears, And mends the heart's deepest tears. One conversation at a time, It will clarify, shadows of confusion, It will align our truths, And bring clarity to our vision. One conversation at a time, It will renew, bonds both old and new, It will strengthen connections, And let understanding ensue. Appreciate your reflections in the comments section

WORDS create magic. There’s a thin line between your thoughts and your choice of words. Your words are a reflection of your perception. Your words can heal as well as harm. Do you know why great men wrote poetry and literature? These two are tools that evoke deep emotions and foster a sense of connection. What you say, how you say it matters. Take this words into your heart and repeat them after me: 🌺 I am capable and strong. 🌺 I am worthy of love and respect. 🌺 I am doing my best, and that is enough. 🌺 I am capable of achieving great things. 🌺 I am resilient and can overcome any challenge. 🌺 I am valuable and make a difference. 🌺 I am deserving of happiness and success. 🌺 I am creative and full of unique ideas. 🌺 I am kind and make the world a better place. 🌺 I am constantly growing and evolving. 🌺 I am enough just as you are. 🌺 I am surrounded by love and support. 🌺 I am confident and capable. 🌺 I am a positive influence on those around you. 🌺I am brave and face challenges head-on. Take these one dose at a time. I prescribe them to you because I’m a product of it. Ps: You’re the product of your words. #IamtheBlessing

Action they say speaks louder than words, and very rightly so Regardless of what we say, how loud, long and often we say it, it is what we do that says more People would remember more of how we treated them than what we said to them Also, we are assessed, judged or recognised more by the things we do than say Sometimes we may prefer to do nothing than go against the popular tide, in an attempt to be seen as neutral; but failing to do the right to right a wrong is not any different to actively doing the wrong By doing nothing we've done something, and by avoiding making a decision we've made a decision.

60 Seconds for Time Out Tuesday: What Amazing Idea Did You Overhear Yourself Say? Your ability to overhear your amazing ideas is "an art of survival" that can inspire others. Our very own Whidbey Island Poet Laureate, philosopher, and Bard of the Boardroom, David Whyte once said, “Poetry is often the art of overhearing yourself say things you didn't know you knew. It is a learned skill to force yourself to articulate your life, your present world or your possibilities for the future. We need that same skill as an art of survival. We need to overhear the tiny but very consequential things we say that reveal ourselves to ourselves.” [Flying Edna Digital Calendar 2024] #QuestionForGroup?

Now, how might you put your amazing idea into play so you can help others aspire to amazing? _____________________ #HumanConnection #IdeasIntoAction #CreatingChange #WhatInspiresMe #CreativeCommunity

Welcome to poetry Friday.   Today I have picked an excerpt from one of my favourite speeches: The Man In The Arena from Theodore Roosevelt's speech titled "Citizenship in a Republic”. This speech inspired me a great deal as a young man.   "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”   It’s a piece that I always refer back to as a useful reminder that leaders are the ones in the arena, not on the sidelines. The lessons that I take from these inspiring words are:   1)    Courage Over Comfort 2)    Resilience in the Face of Criticism 3)    The Dignity of Effort and Failure 4)    Commitment to Worthy Causes   Roosevelt’s words, from right back at 1910, still ring true today as leaders face an arena of challenges as they navigate a rapidly changing and increasingly demanding world.   Out of the lessons I take from these words, it's the Worthy Cause that lands most powerfully with me. I believe a worthy cause is the wellspring of energy that underpins our ability to strive.   As an exercise, as you reflect on these words take the opportunity to refresh your connection with your own personal worthy cause or leadership purpose. #poetry #poetryfriday #leadership #speech #betterleaders #betterleadership #fridaythoughts   Have a great weekend, everyone!

Unselfish Understanding In the Bible, 1 Corinthians 16:14 says, "Let all that you do be done in love". Erich Fromm was born on March 23, 1900, and transcended on March 18, 1980. He was considered the great humanistic philosopher and psychologist on the art of unselfish understanding. Fromm indicated that listening is an art just like understanding poetry. Without properly managing the art of listening, it is impossible to understand or comprehend the other person's point of view. Understanding takes time. Understanding cannot be rushed. It is vital that we develop love, and show empathy, and patience in order to understand others. We must have a deep and loving desire not only to be understood but also to seek to understand others with sincere hearts, and open minds, without fear.
