Courage
Welcome the surprises
Surprise wakes us up from whatever business as usual mindset we were in. The surprise makes us more alert, and we might take a closer look.
Courage takes heart
Whenever you must find the extra energy you need to persist in the face of doubt, courage shows up for the INPowered.
Be a courageous learner
It takes courage to share new learning. You might be scoffed and ridiculed because others don’t get it.
INLightenment can be both liberating and terrifying
INLightenment requires a truth teller and a willing listener.
Impossible or I’m possible. Decide which.
Rather than write a goal statement, I should write myself a challenge, “My mission, should I choose to accept it is to . . . then fill in the blank.
Truth is like finding gold
There can be so much information that obstructs and distracts that the truth of a matter is not immediately obvious.
Dare Yourself
Dare we hold ourselves to the highest ethical and moral standards in governing, business, and personal conduct?
Cut loose
To Live INPowered, we must find a way to cut loose from the mental and emotional ties that hold us from reaching our goals.
Learn and practice escape moves
Learning how to get out of trouble is as important as learning how to avoid trouble in the first place.
Fear not
Fear is our built-in automatic early warning system designed to protect us from danger. What happens next will determine whether we continue to live in fear.
Courage is putting principle above popularity
The INPowered are absolutely clear about what values and ideals are so important to them that they will hold fast to that conviction no matter how terrifying the consequences might be.
There is strength in flexibility
Have you noticed that it’s almost impossible to snap something in two that’s flexible? But those objects that build strength solely in their hard, rigid structures are more susceptible to snapping or cracking under extreme force.
