Recently I was in a meeting with my management team.
A question was raised.
There was a millisecond available to me to choose whether to justify our current position, or to question it.
The moment was only a fraction of a second.
Fortunately I chose to question our position.
It opened up a can of worms.
I had to admit I was wrong.
That led to some tough decisions being made and some uncomfortable conversations.
And we are a better organisation as a result.
Life is a series of moments, and in each of those moments doors open.
Sometimes the doors don’t stay open beyond those moments.
I can't remember a time in my life when I didn't have ambition.
We sometimes believe strength means self-sufficiency — that being independent means being isolated.
We often try to outrun the storm, emotionally, physically, spiritually.
We’re entering an age where machines do our thinking before we’ve even had a chance to try.
In church the other day, the pastor gave a sermon that really stuck with me. He talked about two people.
Hope doesn’t mean pretending everything is okay.
