  • What love means in a corporate environment
  • The difference between a question and a wonder
  • Moving from desire to finding things that bring you contentment
  • It's not always what you do but that you have meaningful relationships at work
  • "Do service", doing things with honor, treating things as special

  • What you resist, persists
  • Suppressing your thoughts
  • How hating your job causes you to suffer
  • His troubled youth
  • The role that the kindness of other people has played in his life
  • His three reflections on kindness:
  • We choose who we are kind to
  • No act is too small
  • The starfish story
