Our Buckland team members were gifted this book and explored one of the insightful practices each month throughout this year. Pauline Caballero, Chief Revenue Officer at Buckland is our guest as we explore the 12 practices in the Art of Possibility and discuss the power that they have for the transformation of workplace culture. Show Notes / Helpful Links: “Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness. Concerning all acts of initiative and creation, there is one elementary truth the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one’s favour all manner of unforeseen incidents, meetings and material assistance which no man could have dreamed would have come his way. Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it.
