Our health care system is finally optimized for 100 years ago. Not the future.
Leaders can still put the power back into their people’s hands: remind them of what we’re caring for.
This is our home. At our home there is abundance, stability, and resources available to all. Our home’s future is better, not worse, than today.
Those who don’t take care of their home or the home of God are homeless.
[Sense of] safety yields [sense of] agency and ownership.
The most important thing we can do to rebuild our health care system is to talk about it.
Are you waiting for a smarter person to do your work for you?
Don’t underestimate the power of a common man.
Don’t overestimate the common of a power man.
Every time you borrow from the future, you’re setting back your future self.

Fire ants are the definition of resilience in nature. Whereas a solitary ant is taken down by a watered tunnel, its colony surfs rogue waves. It’s incredible to see this!

Care to invite them in.
It doesn’t have to be at your meeting. Maybe you can show up at theirs. Or show up wherever they are.
Every human is a lottery ticket on a fundamental breakthrough that might completely change how we think it.
We’ve figured out how to manufacture vaccines against cancer and get a diagnosis from a doctor who is 50 miles away.
In the US, we’re long on genius, but short on empathy.
In North Korea, humanity is trapped in a local minimum which is difficult to climb out of. The entire society is suppressed so as not to be able to improve. They’ve lost their biggest discovery, which was the ability to make new discoveries.
Those of us in healthcare are also eager to break the mold, but we have all been raised to behave alike. Whether you call it obedience or not, it’s not creativity.
In a time when creativity, clarity, and risk-taking is asked of us.
The real test of an asset is not social. It’s not even definitional. It’s how it behaves in the market. It’s how it corresponds to reality.
If only ad boards and their readouts could offer the clarity that we seek.
Nothing. Can replace heart-to-heart interactions.
