Some nice aphorisms for those working on change projects:
“It’s difficult to remove by logic an idea that is not placed there by logic in the first place.”
“If the map doesn’t agree with the ground, the map is wrong.”
“We are what we do.”
“Feelings follow behaviour.”
“Not all who wander are lost.”
“We flee from the truth in vain.”
“Mental health requires freedom of choice.”
“The only real paradises are those that are lost.”
“Be bold, and mighty forces will come to your aid.”
All from ‘Too Soon Old, Too Late Smart’, a pithy book that lists 30 things Gordon Livingston learnt in his career as a therapist.
