“Successful leaders react quickly and with purpose. When challenges arise, they are thrilled for the opportunity to act.”

“If someone says they are thinking about suicide, there’s no need to panic. We don’t have to try to talk them out of it. We don’t have to try to solve it. We need only remain calm and listen. Truly, deeply listen. Ask what’s going on, and keep the person talking. Pose open-ended questions—questions that cannot be answered with a simple “yes” or “no”—and speak without judgment, again focusing on feelings.”

“The world we live in today is a complex tapestry of interwoven challenges and opportunities. As we collectively face the reality of an ever-evolving global landscape, the significance of preparedness, adaptability, and resilience has never been more apparent.

If I listened carefully to them, my conjectures about what they thought usually turned out to be wrong.

So I tried to hear what my friends say about joining their loved ones after death without assuming I knew exactly what they meant.”
