Ask yourself: When did attachments, habits, and over-thinking spoil the freedom by their good intentions or allow insecurity to gain a foothold? When did "knowing better" become a cynical substitute for dashed hopes? Take a tip from those who dare to be different; who trust their own feet and seem blissfully oblivious to revealing their quirky human frailties and in this case, don't try so hard or look too deep, but use this as an inspiration to lighten up because trusting your instincts again and setting a hopeful example has never been dependent on something "out there" -- it's always been up to you.

When you plant one seed...100 people can enjoy the fruits
Great leadership comes with trust and with giving over responsibility to the people behind or under you. The more successful we want to be, the more we need to find a way to share some of that pressure and control with the people under us, and encourage them to do the same with those under them and so on.
The universe works in such a way that a bit of everything we have and we work on cannot be for us, enjoyed by us, benefitted by us, used by us. Trying to hold onto everything only makes things smaller.
Practice no attachment. No control. Let everybody else enjoy from the fruits. When you plant one seed, 100 people can enjoy the fruits, so don’t try to hold onto all of them.
