Secrets of Leadership and Living

Listening more than speaking,
Speaking more than enduring,
Serving more than leading,
Leading more than following.

Being more than having,
Becoming more than being,
Loving more than possessing,
Giving more than hoarding.

Bending more than breaking,
Releasing more than controlling,
Nurturing more than humiliating,
Encouraging more than criticizing.

Inviting more than forcing,
Forgiving more than hating,
Uniting more than excluding,
Linking more than separating.

Confronting more than running,
Risking more than fearing,
Savouring more than devouring,
Conserving more than destroying.

Learning more than copying,
Sharing more than repressing,
Respecting more than dismissing,
Rectifying more than retaliating.

Imagining more than resigning,
Realizing more than imagining,
Hoping more than despairing,
Acting more than hoping.

Accepting more than regretting,
Celebrating more than accepting,
Rejoicing more than complaining,
Thanking more than demanding.

Congratulating more than envying,
Laughing more than lamenting,
Calming more than angering,
Trusting more than withholding.

Attending more than sleeping,
Engaging more than attending,
Persisting more than overpowering,
Aligning more than scattering.

Harmonizing more than obsessing,
Balancing more than magnifying,
Cooperating more than competing
Meditating more than winning.

Transcending more than suffering,
Suffering more than postponing,
Simplifying more than mystifying,
Completing more than stalling.

Illuminating more than ritualizing,
Emancipation more than enslaving,
Developing more than exploiting,
Empowering more than protecting.
