There’s an exception to every rule, a caveat to every piece of advice.
For years I’ve been mentioning how people die standing still; that when you don’t try is when you fail; that not choosing is still choosing and it’s doing so poorly.
Alas, the long awaited exception to standing is if you’re empathizing.
It’s harder to empathize when you’re moving forward. To have complete empathy, you have to stop, see the world through someone else’s eyes and smell the roses the way they smell them.
There can be power in a pause if we use it right.
Stay Positive & Stop To Learn, But Don’t Hide
