One of the things I learned through out my career is that it is relatively easy to say smart things in a meeting. It’s harder to make those smart things real. The hardest thing is making your smart ideas feel like everyone’s idea. Your idea isn’t great until it’s bigger than you.

If wages had kept pace with productivity gains since 1968, the current minimum wage would be more than $24 an hour.
That’s today. Not 5 years from now. Today.

There’s a long history in the US of abusing scripture to advance the causes of bigotry & discrimination.
Slaveholders did it.
Segregationists did it.
White supremacists do it.
And it continues.
Yet if Christ repeated himself today, they’d likely denounce him as a radical, too.

Reasons to be in a relationship:
1. The other person tells you what dogs they saw that day and you then discuss dogs
2. That's it I think
