Carrying the Keys - by Troy Urdahl

“Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.” — Viktor Frankl

The phrase traces back to WWII U.S. Army General “Vinegar” Joe Stilwell. Known for a sharp wit and toughness, Stilwell supposedly had a block like this made to sit squarely on his desk.

It was his way of declaring to anyone who walked in—and maybe even more importantly, to himself—that no matter how chaotic or discouraging things got, he alone would decide his outlook. That’s leadership: owning your mindset when you can’t own the moment.

“Life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it.”
