Balanced building

Focus don't react

back to school arrives // loosening grasp of control //focus don't react

Small improvements

Small improvements, however small, are better than regression. Gains are constantly compounded Making up for negative progress is much more difficult than steady progress through small improvements.

Push extents

The world is ready to move forward with consequences set aside. Find the right ways to push the extents of others' beliefs by being more impactful than forceful.

Adjusting approach

The approach to the pandemic is changing over time, rather than as a response to new methods or protocols. It's a frustrating situation for everyone and the individual approaches will vary more widely moving forward.

Smooth the path

We are heading into an unknown and it won't help if the path is equally bumpy for all. Look to smooth the path for others where possible because it will benefit everyone.

A decade stronger

Relationships take a lot of work and much good fortune. It's worth the effort, and those efforts and luck deserves celebration.

Spinning wheels in the sand

Find ways to be more effective with time and avoid simply spinning tires in the sand. Take a better approach rather than digging too far.

Incremental gains

Big gains feel unlikely in the current environment. String together small incremental gains for happiness and effectiveness. Incremental gains eventually lead to step change.

Small wins repeated

Spend more on the little things that bring small wins. Many of the big wins are gone for now. No travel, no events, no dinners out with friends.
