My motivational quote for today is by – R. Roosevelt Thomas, Jr. “Let's stop believing that our differences make us superior or inferior to one another. A diverse mix of voices leads to better discussions, decisions, and outcomes for everyone.” - R. Roosevelt Thomas, Jr. 

I love this quote and find its relevance extremely timely in today’s divided world. My opinion is right; yours is wrong, which is an awful approach to communication and collaboration. Diverse thinking creates friction, which is a really good thing! This is where conflict resolution happens, allowing for innovations and combined thinking, which helps us end up in a better place than we started. The reality is that we all have our opinions based on our filters and perspectives, which are actually very limited.  This means that most of life happens in the grey areas where diversity and collaboration can create practical and valuable change.  Yet, many avoid the grey area so that they can be right.
