This I Believe

Be moved by reason, led by passion

Set goals that make you dream

Imbue meaning in your work

Create value to make money

Treat obstacles on the path as fuel

Play seriously - work playfully

Manage your day for energy, not time

Frame the whole, before you probe the parts

Sharpen your questions for deeper insights

Explore the unexpected

Often, you’ll be summoned by an inner voice

Have the courage to listen 

Surrender doubt to meaningful action

Be ready to wander, fail, restart and grow

Become what you were born to be

Grant others the grace of doubt 

Share your reasoning, not sell it

Listen in a way that shifts your heart 

Let feedback shape you, not shake you

Judge with fairness, not favor

Invite the quiet person to speak

Challenge without fear

Disagree without discounting

Voice your truth, not others

Don’t spar with the convinced

Resolve conflict with a cool head

Change your path, not values

Seek opposing views to update your priors

Do what’s right, even unseen 

Cherish creativity in all forms

Banish intolerance of free speech

Be civil, but guard against guile

Pay forward, with gratitude

Serve the unborn generations with your gifts

Exit with grace

I aspire to live by these beliefs daily, even if I fail to do so often
