In 1995 I spent my days on two very different scales.
Organizations begin long before they are registered.
An idea becomes real the first time other people walk into a room because of it.
Some of the most durable things an organization owns were not named by its leaders. They were named by its community.
Every organization has a sentence for "we are doing well". The interesting part is what that sentence is counting.
In May 2025, in Dharamshala, I shared the mission of the World Happiness Foundation with His Holiness the Dalai Lama.

“Peace is not just a treaty to be signed—it’s a skill to be learned and a value to be lived.” Peace, Happiness, and a New Paradigm
You can understand a new way of living and still rehearse the old one every morning.
The hardest place to keep your peace is not a retreat. It is your own kitchen.
Your team can tell the difference between a performance and a presence within minutes.
A simple test for any city: do people wake up smiling, and do they feel they belong?
“If openness is a river, understanding is the sturdy bridge that lets us cross into each other’s worldviews.” Rebirth and Freedom: The Alchemy of Whole-Being Leadership
What we call inevitable is often a choice repeated until it looks like fate.
We cannot promise young people a world without difficulty. We can teach them to meet it.
When aid budgets shrink, schooling for refugee children is often among the first things cut.
Meditation, hypnotherapy, breathwork, shamanic drumming: one target beneath them all.
Most conversations about violence start too late: at the war, the strike, the scandal.
Most knowledge work runs on one kind of attention: the tight beam. Deadlines, inboxes, back-to-back meetings.
Hope is often treated as waiting for conditions to improve. I think that is the wrong definition.
"Behind every choice, even those that result in harm, there is a positive intention."
Most ocean policy is framed as damage control. I think that frame is part of the problem.
Friday was the International Day of Friendship. In most workplaces it passed unnoticed, which says something.
Most of us are optimised for certainty. Awe breaks that optimisation, and leaders need more of it.
The most common barrier I see in university classrooms is not lack of talent. It is social anxiety.
Thursday was World Humanitarian Day. It is a good moment to say something leaders rarely say in public: I feel limited.
