Dear Left Brainer....

Dear Left brainer,


It’s never helpful, when asked for your input to list three or 10 or 20 things that need to be fixed without mentioning a single thing that is great. Really. 


I say this with humility, and mind you this isn’t a strength of mine – and I’m working on it (forever, I expect).   I empathize with the sentiment: you just want it (whatever “it” is) to be great, so let’s talk about why it’s not great yet and fix it.
The thing is, to make something great more often than not you need to amplify the things that are already really, really good.



Error correction alone does not get you to greatness.


Love,
Rohini

Change

“Change is not a bolt of lightning that arrives with a zap. It is a bridge built brick by brick, every day, with sweat and humility and slips. It is hard work, and slow work, but it can be thrilling to watch it take shape.”
- Sarah Hepola


Some monday morning inspiration, for all you folks out there desperate to make a lasting change in the world. The path is long, slow and arduous at times - but keep at it and remember you are here not for a paycheck, but for a life time of crazy adventures :)
