Coach's Corner

“It never ceases to surprise me at the infinite capacity of the human mind to resist the introduction of useful knowledge.”
- Thomas Raynesford Lounsbury

Dealing with COVID-19

On our self-discovery journey, we are faced with turbulent times. The future depends on how we choose to meet those defining moments. Our most significant challenges are often our greatest occasions and learning experiences to grow. As we navigate the uncharted realities of COVID-19, many opportunities will present themselves to serve and to be helpers. We will have to become better informed global citizens and make unique sacrifices during these times. Realize there will be an abundance of "can-do" moments over the coming days and weeks. 

Nothing is more critical than the vision and path set by its leader. We can face today with fear and division, or we can choose to approach with love and unity. As leaders and positive-difference makers, it is our moral obligation to cultivate a sense of trust, poise, and inner courage to those around us, no matter how unsteady the circumstances. Vision does not matter if a leader does not dare to pursue it.

We need to frame our thinking, actions, and behaviors around "We the People." We are responsible for our smile, attitude, and mindset while bringing our most authentic, noblest, and fullest selves to each day. No matter how uncertain and dark things get, always believe that goodness and light will prevail. 

What can you do to resonate positivity, strength, unity, and love? May we endeavor to steer a more enlightened path through life's confusion and contradictions. Today, we have the precious opportunity to create a different kind of epidemic — one based on recovery, peace, love, optimism, healing, support, belief, and good health. We will prevail, and this too will pass!
