"Your best performances will come when you are working in a way that is a full expression of you. The work becomes a natural display of your personality. This is when you not only get better results, but also love the activity — because in doing the craft, you feel alive."
—James Clear
Grace is the realization that no matter what appears on the surface of life, no matter what has come before or what appears to be lost, when you tap back into this perfect seed pattern, it will emerge again, fresh, vital, overflowing with new possibilities.
“God is simple. Everything else is complex. Do not seek absolute values in the relative world of nature.”
Physician and educator Maria Montessori on leading others:
"The greatest sign of success for a teacher is to be able to say, "The children are now working as if I did not exist." But this holds true for leadership in general—give people space and they flourish."

The pathless path is an alternative to the default path. It is an embrace of uncertainty and discomfort. It’s a call to adventure in a world that tells us to conform. For me, it’s also a gentle reminder to laugh when things feel out of control and trusting that an uncertain future is not a problem to be solved.
History’s heroes know something the rest of us don’t: fear isn’t the enemy; inaction is. What we have to learn to do is lean into the things that hold us back, to move through the pain and push forward.
