Kindness

Recently, I got into a row with a prospect.  In the middle of the exchange, I got quiet and opted to be kind.

Instantly, the tone of the exchange shifted as kindness took over the dynamics of the issue.

Suddenly, the intractable and impossible became tractable and possible.  A resolution was reached!

Sometimes you have to adjust the temperature and bring kindness into the dynamics.

That's when progress is achieved, and when all is well.

Lovin' LeBron

I love LeBron James.  Why?  Because of his loyalty to his hometown.  Yes, he left and went to Miami to get a championship and he did.  He was vilified and his jerseys were torched. But, his heart was always in Ohio.

So, having gotten a ring, he took the risk and returned to Ohio.  Now, he's leading the Cavs to a possible championship.  The series is tied now at 2-2.  I don't know what will happen but I know I admire his character and applaud him.

Go LeBron!!!

Serena - win or lose

I'm watching Serena Williams playing Sloane Stephens now.  It's a tough match…very tough.  But, Serena is showing why she's a champion.  She is taking on a tough challenge and is raising her game…including her mental game.

I don't know the outcome of this match…but win or lose, she is showing why she's been a champion for so long.

It's a lesson we should all be able to learn.  Take the challenge head on…and never give up.
