Today, I'm joining over 10,000 other @BankofAmerica customers to demand my bank stops funding fossil fuels. As a customer, I’m appalled that my bank provides billions to the fossil fuel industry every year. #CustomersforClimateJustice customersforclimatejustice.com

I'm finding that trying to be the person I imagined I'd be during this time is getting in the way of being of benefit to myself and others. What works? Opening up, as best I can. #startfromcenterofbalance

Your organization has removed all communication walls. Take advantage of being able to hear it all. leadingwhileremote.wordpress.com/dont-stop-list… #cxreport20

We can develop capacity for times like these. We can lead, follow, help, and be more present anywhere we do something that's important to us. Learn more. bigidea.cc/center-of-bala…

Fri Reflection: How well did I adapt the way I relate with folks this wk? Honest about my emotions, capacity, worry, relief, energy? Made room for others'? Not easy, but I can start again today. #centerofbalance

I notice that in telecom conversations lulls may make us think we're done. But in-person conversations have a pulse: change direction, volume, pace, and go on. Like water, maybe. I'll try to let phone and video calls do the same.

This week: Take look at beliefs and assumptions that gather momentum through the day. (This is getting worse, better, etc.) Could you check the momentum and seek other perspectives?

I'm not finding it easy to balance these: not reacting to what I learn and experience (which is what follows) AND not blocking what I learn and experience. You?

Thanks Judy. We can practice accommodating whatever we think is "after us," and see what happens when it's no longer "enemy."

Here's my working assumption. Everything I'm thinking and feeling is "triggered" - a reaction to what I hear, read, feel, and think. So... not to be taken at face value. You?

There's a lot to do - differently - right now. But at home, with few looking over your shoulder, watch what gives you a sense of energy. Go with it, and keep track. What's the pattern? #centerofbalance

"This is the cultural pathology of our time: If we stopped doing what we do, we might not know who we are." Apparently I wrote this sentence 6 years ago (resurfaced today via the time machine that is Twitter), suddenly alive anew as we isolate. In context: brainpickings.org/2014/06/19/ada…
