Every Day Starts At Zero
Key notes from today's podcast: Every day is a chance to begin again (the wake doesn't drive the boat). Micro level: Neither wins nor losses define you. Learn, detach and move on.

Life is the culmination of stories, and yours can be re-written at any time to anything.

The difference between privilege and entitlement is gratitude *note, a lot of people are misinterpreting my comment about Chris having the flu. 1. He had it months ago. 2.

Probably could have been more clear there given our current situation...oops

The Benefit of the Doubt
Human beings are not always rational. We are tribal and emotional, preferring to unite with those who think like us over attempting to understand those who don't. This, however, is at the heart of many of our problems, both personally and professionally. When you give people the benefit of the doubt, you set yourself up for success, simply because you start from the premise that others, even those with whom you disagree, have good intentions. It is simply the approach that varies, and that can always be worked out.
