Stop powering through crap: There are many books I regret powering through, none that I regret quitting. Life is too short to put up with bad writing—bad anything. If the food sucks, stop eating it. If the speaker is boring, get up and go. If the party is no fun, leave.

We just wanted to say Happy Women's Day to all the beautiful women out there! #womeninbusiness #womeninleadership #africanbusiness We are excited to announce something really exciting with all of you! Be sure to follow Jo Watt for the big announcement coming soon!

Honesty isn't just a moral decision. It's a healthy choice. Experiments: avoiding lying for 10 weeks improves mental health by building stronger bonds. Honesty brings unexpected joy and connection. Lies erode trust. We count on people who tell the truth. Candor fuels closeness.

Toxic positivity is pressuring people to look on the bright side. They have to suppress anxiety, anger, sadness, and grief. Healthy support is shielding people from the dark side. You invite them to express their pain, and show them they're not alone and won't feel it forever.

Strong relationships are based on trust and communication. But if there is no communication, there can be no trust.

My CV tip for the week #cvwriting #leadership #talentattraction #talentacquisition "Remember you are competing for someone's attention in a highly distracted world - make sure its clear, concise, speaks to your strengths and the IMPACT you can make and the VALUE you bring."

Helping people who are consistently selfish reinforces the wrong behavior. When you give to takers, you reward them for using you—and encourage them to take advantage of others too. Your time and energy is better spent with people who make the effort to pay it back or forward.

Fight to achieve your goals but do it the right way! “Play by the rules, but be ferocious.” – Phil Knight #businessownertips #businessownerslife #leadershipjourney #leadershipcoaching #tuesdaythoughts

When you decide to run your own business and have been doing it for as long as I have, then this quote speaks volumes! “I don’t know the word ‘quit.’ Either I never did, or I have abolished it.” – Susan Butcher #businessownerslife #leadershipjourney #businessownertips

Success is determined by a number of things. One of those things is hard work and long hours. My quote for the day by #stevejobs “If you really look closely, most overnight successes took a long time.” – Steve Jobs #success #work #leadershipjourney #thursdaytips #thursdaywisdom

Self-care is not the opposite of compassion. It's the opposite of self-neglect. Self-neglect is sacrificing yourself to serve others. Self-care is making sure that helping others doesn't hurt you. Setting boundaries doesn't mean you're self-centered. It means you're self-aware.

“No matter what anyone says or does, my task is to be good." Marcus Aurelius

Before you are a leader, success is all about growing yourself. When you become a leader, success is all about growing others. —Jack Welch

A famous quote by R. Buckminster Fuller from his book, Critical Path says: You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete. Agree? #leadershipjourney #thegreatresignation
