Leading Thoughts for June 26, 2025

IDEAS shared have the power to expand perspectives, change thinking, and move lives. Here are two ideas for the curious mind to engage with:

Peter Senge on personal mastery:

“Personal mastery goes beyond competence and skills, though it is grounded in competence and skills. It goes beyond spiritual unfolding or opening, although it requires spiritual growth. It means approaching one’s life as a creative work, living life from a creative opposed to reactive viewpoint. When personal mastery becomes a discipline—an activity we integrate into our lives—it embodies two underlying movements. First is continually clarifying what is important to us. The second is continually learning how to see current reality more clearly.”

Liz Wiseman on growth:

“The most valuable players are never finished. They are continually adapting, adjusting to hit the mark. How might the smallest adjustment to your approach lead to greater performance?”
