BEST MOMENTS
“Understand that conflict itself is not the problem. The real problem is mismanagement. So, if mismanagement is the problem, once we learn how to identify conflict and manage it differently, then we just get to be better leaders, have better lives, that improves every facet of our lives.”
“There’s no conflict unless there is inner conflict first.”
