5. Think, Pair, Share
Things falling apart is a kind of testing and also a kind of healing. We think
that the point is to pass the test or to overcome the problem, but the truth is
that things don't really get solved. They come together and they fall apart.
Then they come together again and fall apart again. It's just like that. The
healing comes from letting there be room for all of this to happen: room for
grief, for relief, for misery, for joy. When we think that something is going to
bring us pleasure, we don't know what's really going to happen. When we
think something is going to give us misery, we don't know. Letting there be
room for not knowing is the most important thing of all. We try to do what we
think is going to help. But we don't know. We never know if we're going to fall
flat or sit up tall. When there's a big disappointment, we don't know if that's
the end of the story. It may be just the beginning of a great adventure.
- When Things Fall Apart by Pema Chodron

16. Workplace Etiquette
Running Jogging Walking Riding Missed the Bus
Runners are a driving
force behind the
success of the team.
Running means
consistently going
above and beyond
expectations with
positive energy, a sense
of urgency, and a
collective responsibility
mindset.
Joggers are steady and
dependable. Jogging
means consistently
meeting expectations
and occasionally going
above and beyond.
Joggers sometimes
lack positive energy, a
sense of urgency, or a
collective responsibility
mindset.
Walkers are not
contributing any
forward momentum.
Walking means only
meeting the bare
minimum with negative
energy and minimal
sense of urgency or
collective responsibility
mindset.
Riders are those who
have picked up their
feet and are actively
choosing to slow the
bus down. Riders
consistently bring
negative energy and
have little to no sense
of urgency or collective
responsibility mindset.
Those who miss the bus
are actively choosing to
not contribute and/or
fulfill expectations.
Missing the bus creates
backward momentum
and additional mileage,
negatively impacting
the success of
individuals and the
team.
