Resentment slows decision-making and collaboration. When leaders and teams forgive quickly, teams stay agile and focused on solutions instead of rehashing problems.

Overcommitting feels helpful, but it drains your energy and weakens trust. True success comes from fewer, truer commitments—done well, done fully.

Michelangelo said he freed statues from stone. Asking What’s Going Well? does the same for us—chipping away the noise to reveal the good already in our lives.

Everyone experiences a crisis differently. Leadership means noticing, asking, and listening. Sometimes the greatest gift you can give is presence and empathy.

The promises you keep to yourself matter most. Break them and you weaken trust in yourself. Keep them and you grow stronger, more confident, more unstoppable. What commitment will you honor today?

Viktor Frankl taught us that even in suffering, we can choose our attitude. That’s the power of asking: What’s Going Well? It shifts our focus from what’s wrong to what gives us strength. So—what’s going well for you today?

Just as bamboo grows in clusters, remember that your progress isn’t about a single win, it’s about the overall health of your life and work. Don’t neglect the other areas that feed your success.

We love the finish line. The trophies. The spotlight. But real growth? It happens in the shadows. Like bamboo, your success is built underground, through daily habits, steady effort, and patience. https://t.co/H6zMqC2H2F

Not every problem needs a complex answer. Sometimes the simplest solution is the best one. Clear. Direct. Effective. We tend to overcomplicate by adding layers, steps, and noise. But wisdom is knowing when to strip things back. Don’t make life harder than it needs to be.

Your Bamboo Circle doesn’t need to be big. It needs to be rooted. 🌱 Deep roots = trust. Deep roots = growth. Take care of your circle. It’s what helps you thrive.

In a crisis, the leader’s greatest tool is focus. Focus on others, not yourself. Focus on gains, not losses. Focus on what’s going well. Attention is energy. What you focus on expands.

Perfection is a trap. Progress is the path. Chase progress, not perfection, or you’ll end up with nothing. #freshbrewedinspiration

The world pulls us toward what’s wrong. Your brain is wired to notice the negative. Here’s the shift: ask What’s Going Well? This question is a habit that rewires your brain toward optimism, resilience, and hope. So… what’s going well for you today?
