![]() Leading Thoughts for May 8, 2025![]() IDEAS shared have the power to expand perspectives, change thinking, and move lives. Here are two ideas for the curious mind to engage with: Sébastien Page on focusing on what makes us better: “Traditional goals focus on outcomes, while mastery goals focus on process. Both are effective. It’s important to set goals for process improvements. Don’t overemphasize outcomes over process. If you don’t examine your process and the quality of your decisions, in other words, if you only focus on outcomes, you may think you’re an absolute genius. As a leader, recognize that attaining your goal does not necessarily mean you’ve made good decisions along the way.” Bob Rosen on finding our way forward: “Many of us live in a world of delusion, a kind of psychological avoidance. We avoid the mirror at all costs, and we do this to avoid discomfort and anxiety. Our natural tendency is to look outside ourselves for answers to life’s problems. In a counterintuitive way, our peace of mind really comes from the inside. Indeed, many of our problems are self-imposed, and the only way to put an end to our suffering is to deepen our self-understanding. By turning inward, we can find true joy and freedom. Otherwise, we are left with faulty thinking and disturbing emotions and the attachments that weigh us down.” Source: Detach: Ditch Your Baggage to Live a More Fulfilling Life Look for these ideas every Thursday on the Leading Blog.
