Zen leadership

Life is not measured by how many breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

Maybe it's just my browser or something. But, I love the way this link (below) to a site that is supposed to be about the Zen of leadership comes up...completely empty apart from a photograph of a Zen garden (not as nice as my Zen garden).

So, if my next post is empty, you know I've taken this whole Zen approach to leadership to the extreme, just to be even Zenner than the competition. In the meantime, this link wins on emptiness (or am I just missing something?), since not only does it say nothing, it says nothing in three languages. That's a real Zen master for you:

"Look out on life with amazement, not shock.

The variety, the diversity, the manner of every person, the beauty amidst the drudgery, the contrasts, the opportunities, the heroism in the lives of ordinary people, your gifts, your talents, your friends - even just one friend - is all awesome.

“We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then, is not an act, but a habit.� - Aristotle

Practice makes perfect, remember our Mothers used to tell us that all the time. Practice the piano, do your homework etc etc. Some nice liitle ideas here and some cool tools as well.

Anger is weakness.

Tolerance is bravery.

Humility makes you strong.
