Starting with - do I have an idea worth spreading...
Sharing an intimate story - performing CPR on an old guy... taking his false teeth out, face collapsed, not wanting to look - freaking me out by looking kind of dead... and he vomited in my mouth...
What I learnt from the experience - whenever I have to do something really bad I always have the thought - it could be worst.
Meeting the people you are working with... hurting with laughter as Nigel shares a connecting story...
Give.. then ask for stuff... it is absolutely crucial to give!
Noticing the differences - the MAGIC can be in the quiet and still...
Notice that happiness exists outside yourself... Happiness exists in those who are important to you...
Words can't always reach... going to the victims families, all about people's lives.
Try not to give into basic human weakness... let what you are doing try to improve the quality of lives...
"make people's lives better" a basic practise or code to live by! use this as a road map when you are faced with a decision....
Absolutely MAGIC @nigellatta
