The solution to the problem of malevolence and tragedy is to confront them.”
Happy Friday. Some of my work notes shared with a client today re: finding meaning in her suffering. Be grateful. It’s a blessing that you get to play The Infinite Game.
Choose sacrifice. Choose growth.
- How To Handle The Beast
“Our species knows the Beast well, but we don’t talk about it much. I suppose that’s because it’s hard to win at the rat race and other public-facing status games when you admit you are suffering. But suffering less is more important.”
- How Julia Child Used First Principles Thinking
“There’s a big difference between knowing how to follow a recipe and knowing how to cook. If you can master the first principles within a domain, you can see much further than those who are just following recipes.”
- Leading During A Crisis (video)
“There are certain kinds of rules in a crisis. Number one, I don’t respond in little pieces and then change my mind. I wait until I get the facts. It’s your response that defines who you really are in other people’s eyes.”
