This picture describes perfectly where I am in my life: watching a beautiful phase of my life set from the back mirror.
Some truths about life:
Calling someone ugly doesn’t make you any more beautiful. Excluding a person doesn’t make you more popular. Calling someone fat doesn’t make you lose weight. To say that someone one is sad doesn’t bring you happiness. To say that someone is weak doesn’t make you stronger. Saying that someone is stuck up doesn’t bring you humility. To say that someone is insignificant doesn’t exalt you. Saying that someone is fake doesn’t lead you to the truth. Knowing a lot of people is not the same as having friends. To be famous is not the same as being liked/loved. Attraction is different from love.
Algumas verdades da vida:
Chamar alguém de feio não te deixa mais bonito. Excluir uma pessoa não te torna mais popular. Xingar alguém de gordo não te emagrece, dizer que uma pessoa é triste não traz felicidade. Falar que alguém é fraco não te fortalece, dizer que uma pessoa é metida não te traz a humildade. Falar que alguém é insignificante não te engrandece, dizer que uma pessoa é falsa não te leva à verdade. Conhecer muita gente não é o mesmo que ter amigos, ser famoso é diferente de ser querido. Atração é diferente de AMAR!

The Four Capacities Every Great Leader Needs (And Very Few Have)
What are some capacities that make a great leader? In a recent blog post, Tony Schwartz (@tonyschwartz) talks about four key capacities that show up, to one degree or another, in the most inspiring leaders he has met.
1. Great leaders recognize strengths in us that we don’t always yet fully see in ourselves.
2. Rather than simply trying to get more out of us, great leaders seek to understand and meet our needs, above all a compelling mission beyond our immediate self-interest, or theirs.
3. Great leaders take the time to clearly define what success looks like, and then empower and trust us to figure out the best way to achieve it.
4. The best of all leaders — a tiny fraction — have the capacity to embrace their own opposites, most notably vulnerability alongside strength, and confidence balanced by humility.
