Shownotes Transcript

The famous glass of water... is it half full or half empty? What does that mean? Our language is actually fuzzy and strongly dependent on the context. A glass of water in Switzerland is probably a glass with a volume of about 1.5dl. In the US, a glass of water is probably three times that size! Does that matter? Maybe not. Maybe it does. If I'm in a very hot place in the summer and maybe haven't had a drink or exercised in a while, I'd want the American size. Or for an African woman who first has to walk a few kilometres from her village to the well to fetch water, this also matters. Context, it is. It's the same with you. Depending on the context, you and your gifts and personality blossom more. I wish you for today that you have moments full of suitable context in which you can bring all your uniqueness to the benefit of your environment and bloom.

I wish you an extraordinary day!
