We commemorated Remembrance Day today with a beautiful assembly and we hope families will take time on November 11 to honour those who sacrificed so much for our freedom.

Looking for the good in others doesn’t make you naive. It means you’re not cynical.
Recognizing people’s strengths doesn’t deny their flaws. It reveals their potential to overcome their flaws.
Those who refuse to see the good in others fail to bring out the best in others.

On the plane to Hawaii in 2016 @NadreamC and I chatted about this.
In 2019 we filmed it to be released in 2020 to showcase the Ol’96er. Delayed due to COVID.
Now in 2022 it’s finally out and I’m excited for everyone to check it out!

A big misconception is that you need to feel good to get going. You don't. It's often the other way around: You need to get going to give yourself a chance at feeling good. Motivation often follows action.

Being an introvert is not about where you get your energy. It's how you handle stimulation.
Introverts are energized by people too. We’re just easily exhausted by loud parties, close talkers, and endless houseguests.
I'm not antisocial. I'm pro-quiet.

Informed optimism doesn’t mean you only look at the bright side. It means you don’t overlook the bright side.
If you won't see possibility, you can't solve problems. If you can't imagine a best case, you don't make things better.
The greatest antidote to fear is grounded hope.

Appealing to fear isn't going to end the pandemic.
Repeatedly sounding the alarm has put us through a form of exposure therapy—we’ve built up antibodies against fear.
The last thing we need is a population too bored to pay attention and take action.
