giving way facts
There can be no clearer indication of how undemocratic the way we finance campaigns is than the fact that only one-quarter of 1% donate $200 or more, and only one-tenth of 1% gives $1,000 or more.
two giving balance
Success for me is going beyond money and power, and measuring success based on a third metric - one founded on well-being, wisdom, our ability to wonder and to give back. Money and power by themselves are a two-legged stool. You can balance on them for a while, but eventually you're going to topple over. Basically, success the way we've defined it is no longer sustainable.
giving naysayers littles
Naysayers have little power over us - unless we give it to them.
two giving metrics
At the moment, our society's notion of success is largely composed of two parts: money and power. But it's time for a third metric, beyond money and power - one founded on well-being, wisdom, our ability to wonder, and to give back.
people giving
The happiest people are the most giving people
stress giving goal
Don’t just climb the ladder of success - a ladder that leads, after all, to higher and higher levels of stress and burnout - but chart a new path to success, remaking it in a way that includes not just the conventional metrics of money and power, but a third metric that includes well-being, wisdom, wonder and giving, so that the goal is not just to succeed but to thrive.
eulogy limited-time earth
Why do we spend so much of our limited time on this earth focusing on all the things that our eulogies will never cover?
giver
Be a go-giver, not a go-getter
feelings
Remind yourself: you are not your thoughts or feelings
believe passionate want
I'm passionate. I find if I really believe something, I want to put my entire being behind it.
self people overcoming
... it is easier to overcome people's judgments than to overcome our own self-judgment...
littles doormat persons
Paul Ryan has become a doormat...And he's become this little person who is following Romney around.
want kind
It’s not ‘What do I want to do?’, it’s ‘What kind of life do I want to have?’
fall class giants
The middle class is teetering on the brink of collapse just as surely as AIG was in the fall of 2009 - only this time, it's not just one giant insurance company (and its banking counterparties) facing disaster, it's tens of millions of hardworking Americans who played by the rules.
