Why are you looking around for help? Do you believe that help will come from outside? What is to come is created in you and from you. Hence, look into yourself. Do not compare. Do not measure. No other way is like yours. All other ways deceive and tempt you. You must fulfil the way that is in you. — Carl Jung

Every season in life has meaning. Some build us. Some renew us. Some simply remind us that nothing stays the same. If you are in a challenging season, hold on. It will pass and you will rise stronger.

Most people don’t need therapy. They need #philosophy. The real problem isn’t always the external world. It’s the reaction to it. Here’s how #Stoic thinking shifts everything: Control what can be controlled ↳ External events? Not up to you. ↳ Thoughts, choices, mindset? Entirely yours. Detach from outcomes ↳ Focus on effort, not results. ↳ Peace comes from action, not outcome. Expect discomfort ↳ Pain, delay, failure – not exceptions, but part of life. ↳ Accept, adapt, advance. See challenges as training ↳ Every hardship is preparation. ↳ Growth rarely comes from comfort. Let go of what doesn’t serve ↳ Status, noise, resentment – let them go. ↳ A clear mind is a powerful tool. True #power comes from mastering the mind, not the world. #Stoicism #life

#Action with thought creates results. Thought without action creates regret.

Comfort makes you soft. Pressure makes you dangerous.

Good decisions come from #Experience, But Experience comes from Bad decisions. This is life...

Most people think consistency guarantees growth. (But it doesn't.) People assume that posting regularly will eventually pay off. In reality, they just repeat content that never worked.

You are never back at zero. You are rising with experience and momentum.

Your energy leaves a trail people follow or avoid. Choose wisely. Once you understand the power of your words, you won't just say anything. Once you understand the power of your thoughts, you won't just think anything. And once you understand the power of your presence, you won't just be anywhere. Know your worth.

We only live once. Act accordingly!

When someone helps you and they're struggling too, that's not help, that's #love.

When the music changes, so does the dance. AFRICAN PROVERB

THE MIND THAT IS NOT BAFFLED…

I often start negotiation classes by noting that negotiation is a skill we all use. We negotiate deadlines with colleagues. Expectations with partners. Rules with our kids. Even the conversations we have with ourselves (about what we should do or deserve) are forms of negotiation. One powerful tool to use is FRAMING: the way we shape the situation, define the problem, and position the choices. Framing doesn’t change the facts, but it does change how those facts are interpreted. One of my favorite examples of this comes from a 1912 campaign mishap involving Theodore Roosevelt. His team had printed millions of brochures with his photo, only to realize they never got permission from the photographer. Copyright rules meant the photographer could legally charge a huge fee, equivalent to millions of dollars today. The campaign manager could have panicked. Instead, he reframed the situation. He sent the photographer a message that basically said: “We’re planning to distribute three million brochures featuring your photo. That’s incredible publicity. How much would you like to pay for the opportunity?” The photographer quickly responded, apologizing that he could only afford $250. Problem solved: same facts, different frame. There is an important lesson in this story. We often accept the frame we’re given: - “This is the only option.” - “This is what you owe.” - “This can’t be changed.” But skilled negotiators know they can shift the story. As I say in my classes, FRAMING is king. #framing #negotiation #skills #learning #leadership #collaboration #negotiation
