'This is the only thing I’ve learned: There’s only us. There’s no them. Despots and authoritarians need to make a “them” to have a straw man whom you are against. If you need to make an enemy of “them,” you’ve lost the spirit of us.' #Quote #KenBurns

Kindness to ourselves impacts our 'emotional well-being, motivation, health behaviours, personal responsibility, coping, and better interpersonal relationships.' #quote Neff & Davidson (2016) #WorldKindnessDay

“Do things for people not because of who they are or what they do in return, but because of who you are.” Harold S. Kushner

Kindness reminds us we’re not on our own.

A vibrant rainbow illustration spreading in wide curved bands from the top of the image to the bottom. The colours move from yellow and orange at the top into pink, red, purple, blue and finally green toward the bottom. Across the rainbow, in bold hand drawn black lettering, the message reads: “Be kind. You never know what someone is going through.” Small white heart doodles are scattered across the rainbow. The bottom curve shows the artist credit “@anxiety.Positive.” The overall tone of the artwork is warm, gentle and reassuring.

In very many situations that professionals bring to SuperVision, they don't need more knowledge - what makes the difference is discovering a new way of seeing. #reflectivepractice

I currently have a very close to finish book, an almost complete draft of another book and at least 2 other semi-formed books in the wings! Project hopping may not be an ideal habit. But it happens. #amwriting

Do any authors here hop between projects?

I want to pursue another idea I have, but I also was to continue Beyond The Mark. 😭

Yes @steveofmcleod.com each stage of the writing journey can feel like a stepping stone across a river. There are stones that feel wobbly, or the gap between stones is daunting. The possibilty of reaching the other side sometimes feels dubious.

Thanks Val. As a fellow writer, I’m sure you can empathise - that feeling when a stage of the book creation is completed!

Just 20 minutes ago, my co-author Siew Ann and I finished the 10th and last of our interviews for "Kill the HiPPO", the book we are writing on how bootstrapped founders choose what to build next.

Please celebrate this milestone a little with me!
