“Confidence and humility are not opposites. In fact, you can’t have true humility until you first have confidence. Confidence without humility is arrogance. Humility without confidence is an inferiority complex. “
– Roy H. Williams, The Wizard of Ads and now the third-most frequently quoted dude in The Diff’s history
Hate is not the opposite of love, either. Fear is.
Opposites are an interesting way to look at life. Opposites seem to lead with “but.”
Today, this week, let’s try to use our “and/or” filter more than our “but/so” filter.
I bet it makes a difference, and not just for us.
Confident AND humble. Kind AND firm. Smart AND curious.
I’d love to hear how it works for you.
