- [Thoughts on Gratitude...](https://thecoachinglens.com/thoughts-on-gratitude/) - We find many reasons to love this quote by Richelle E. Goodrich. We love the idea that we can purposefully choose to view the world through a lens of gratitude and in doing so, create a mindset that more clearly sees possibilities and builds resilience. Even better, scientific research tells us that a consistent brain pattern of gratitude changes neuroplasticity. It rewires mental habits and strengthens neural pathways that support a more positive outlook. When we’re looking through a lens of gratitude, the vivid colours and opportunities appear right in front of us, just waiting to be discovered.

The Coaching Lens would like to share some Leadership thoughts that reflect on that positivity. As a leader, when you foster an environment of trust, you create a culture of safety where team members have the confidence to take risks and where mistakes are considered valuable learning opportunities. When people feel valued, engaged and inspired, there is no limit to the creativity and innovation they can deliver.

Don’t give up.” – Robert Tew

- [Humility vs Narcissism](https://thecoachinglens.com/humility-vs-narcissism/) - We're re-publishing this post as we find it increasingly relevant today: Is social media the cause of the staggering rise of narcissism in our world or does it simply show us more of it? Either way, we don’t have to emulate the narcissists around us. We have the right to choose humility and in doing so, demonstrate the most effective kind of leadership in our workplace, in our community and in our home-life. The gift of humility is something we give to ourselves and to those around us. Click the title or image to learn more...
