From the Inspirational Thought Unit
It's a new year, and with that comes a period of reflection followed by a sense of resolve welling up from within. I like that our culture takes a collective break for a week between Christmas and New Years where no one is expected to check email, and therefore feel no obligation to send them. It's a time to look back on the year, see what worked and what didn't, and look forward to what you want to accomplish this year.
One thing I'm think a lot about working on this year is what I emphasize.
I spent a lot of energy last year worrying about half empty glasses and a lot of advice given is to instead focus on how full the glass is.
But there's another thing to look at and it's distilled nicely here by economist Donald Kaberuka:
"I'm not interested in whether the glass is half empty or half full. I'm interested in figuring out how to fill the glass."

What can you do this year to fill the glass?
