Notes

…the first mark of conscious leaders is self-awareness and the ability to tell themselves the truth.

All drama in leadership and life is caused by the need to be right. Letting go of that need is a radical shift all great leaders make.

The entire game changes when we choose to see that we’re creating our experience, and that someone or something is not doing it to us.

Leaders who are curious, above the line, and committed to learning ask lots of wonder questions. They make it a practice to generate them.

Feelings just occur.

If the words “I feel” are followed by “that” or “like,” you are expressing a thought, not describing a feeling.

Babies and animals don’t hold on to feelings. They let them go.

Tell the truth. Don’t lie.

Agreeing to listen to gossip is the same as speaking it.

Masterful appreciation is sincere, unarguable, specific, and succinct.
