Putting into place a daily or weekly practice of 'looking for the lovely thing,' can help sustain us and keep us creative—for, it is in a spirit of gratitude, hope and creativity that we can maintain our energy and continue to craft better and better solutions together.”

Even if you don’t trust your gut.”
