Description

In today’s episode, we work hard to be our best in our Last 8% moments not just because it serves us or because it helps us be our best self and grow our career and relationships, though that is certainly one of the great benefits.We work hard, we practice, because we want to have a bigger impact on the world around us, we want to have a more intentional impact on our world.In today’s episode, we explore our motivation for why we practice and why we are engaged in this Last 8% project.Let's walk!“Compassion is not a relationship between the healer and the wounded. It's a relationship between equals. Only when we know our own darkness well can we be present with the darkness of others. Compassion becomes real when we recognize our shared humanity.”Pema Chodron“If your actions inspire people to dream more, learn more, do more, and become more, you are a leader.”John Quincy Adams“Everybody can be great, because everybody can serve. You don’t have to have a college degree to serve. You don’t have to make your subject and your verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace, a soul generated by love.”Martin Luther King, Jr."The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others." Mahatma Gandhi
