“To walk out of his will is to walk into nowhere.” - C.S. Lewis
Dawn Staley is the first Black coach in Division I college basketball to complete an undefeated season (38-0)
Confidence doesn't always come from believing in yourself today. It often stems from recalling the obstacles you overcame yesterday. A history of resilience can silence self-doubt. Challenges conquered are clues to hidden strengths. Past progress is proof of future potential.
Congrats @IlliniWBB @Shauna_Green 🔶🔷

Resilience is not about being invulnerable to hardship. It’s about accepting adversity as part of life. Some struggles are challenges to conquer. Others are weights to carry. Strength doesn’t come from avoiding setbacks. It comes from refusing to be defined by suffering.
What are the top five narrative nonfiction books of the 21st Century? Here are my picks: 1) Unbroken, by Laura Hillenbrand 2) Moneyball, by Michael Lewis 3) Thank You for Your Service, by David Finkel 4) Citizen, by Claudia Rankine 5) Killers of the Flower Moon, by Davin Grann

Understand that stress is caused not by other people or external events, but by your reactions to them. s.hbr.org/3Ntt9ST
🗣 LET OUR MOTTO BE
The hallmark of an open mind is refusing to let your ideas become your identity. If you define yourself by your opinions, questioning them is a threat to your integrity. If you see yourself as a curious person or a lifelong learner, changing your mind is a moment of growth.
JENSEN HUANG: “Resilience matters in success. I don’t know how to teach it to you, except for: I hope suffering happens to you .. because .. greatness comes from character. And character isn’t formed out of smart people. It’s formed out of people who suffered.” $NVDA @ValaAfshar
A deep understanding of context, the ability to embrace complexity and paradox, and a willingness to flexibly change leadership style will be required for leaders who want to make things happen in times of increasing uncertainty. s.hbr.org/3NscCPa
