Issue #156, April 30, 2026 Welcome to Insights and Implications! This month we explore a superpower that we all have. Happy reading! All of us at Insight Principles Reflecting - An Unconscious Superpower Imagine you were born with a superpower but no one told you. It has been helping you out all your life, but the whole process is unconscious. Maybe you noticed an aspect of it though you likely misattributed the source and the access so you could not use this power purposefully. When you don't know how something works, it's hard to use

Issue #151, November 28, 2025 Welcome to Insights and Implications! Life is full of uncertainty but that doesn’t have to be a problem or a source of suffering. Find out why/how in this month’s newsletter. Happy Thanksgiving to all our American friends. All the best, All of us at Insight Principles Uncertainty?

Issue #147, July 31, 2025 Welcome to Insights and Implications! This month Ken, Robin and Sandy spotlight a powerful innate capacity: intuition. Something we all need to rely on more, especially in these complex times. All the best, All of us at Insight Principles Intuition: A Precious Friend Have you ever been in a situation where despite the complexity or the unknowns, you saw what to do?

Issue #146, June 30, 2025 Welcome to Insights and Implications! Oh, innovation. Companies can’t survive long-term without it. And sometimes it’s hard to find. In this month’s newsletter Nikki and Robin explain how we already have built-in everything we need to innovate. All the best, All of us at Insight Principles Effortless Innovation When people discuss innovation, it’s good to distinguish the what from the how. Folks generally agree on the “what” of innovation: generating new useful/valuable ideas or insights. We usually find disagreement around the “how”. You have the (1) harder-faster camp (e.g., brainstorming) and the

Issue #140, December 31, 2024 Welcome to Insights and Implications! A short note from us to wrap up the year and reflect on all that has been. All the best, All of us at Insight Principles Taking A Breather This can be a strange time of year. At work, year-end tasks and deliverables abound, usually pulling in lockstep with holiday-related responsibilities at home. At the same time, most of us have at least a few days, if not more, to disconnect from the fray and spend time with our families and/or friends. This combination of Go and

Issue #132, April 29, 2024 Welcome to Insights and Implications! Life as a human being is full of ups and downs and all arounds.

Issue #127, November 30 2023 Welcome to Insights and Implications! Sleep: so sweet when it comes, so hard when it doesn’t. If you’ve ever endured a night of insomnia, this month’s newsletter is for you. We hope it’s helpful. All of us at Insight Principles Thoughts on Sleep Around 8 years ago, when my kiddo was a toddler, I endured a long period of horrible insomnia. Much of this was rooted in my relationship to being a working mom. It was tough. The hardest part, I think, was what I’ll call the “insomnia meta-stress.” I’d have a rough night of sleep,

Issue #126, October 30, 2023 Welcome to Insights and Implications! When life gets topsy-turvy it can be difficult to make sense of it all. This month, Robin offers some deep and heartfelt reflections on the lessons available during personal challenges. We hope they are helpful. All the best, All of us at Insight Principles Life Events - Suffering Is Optional By any measure, October was a personally challenging month. All around me, family and dear friends experienced a series of unwelcome calamities: death, serious and sudden illnesses, terrorism, and a house fire, to name a few. Each was a

Issue #125, September 29, 2023 Welcome to Insights and Implications! Fall is here! And as the holiday season looms and the year begins to wind down, you might find yourself needing a bit of inspiration. Luckily, we know just the place to look. All the best, All of us at Insight Principles Looking for IN-spiration I recently received an email newsletter entitled “15 Ways To Find Inspiration”. The list included things like: Visit your local bookstore, create a vision board, follow 10 new people on Twitter, and spend time in nature.

Happy holidays to all and our best wishes for the new year, All of us at Insight Principles Chasing Discernment I’ve been thinking about discernment lately – what it means, what allows for it, and where it comes from. But first, a definition: discernment (noun) dis·cern·ment di-ˈsərn-mənt 1: the quality of being able to grasp and comprehend what is obscure: skill in discerning 2: the trait of judging wisely and objectively, “a

Issue #112, August 31, 2022 Welcome to Insights and Implications! Sometimes we ask people how they’re doing without expecting an honest or complete answer. “How are you?”, we might say. Or: “How’s it going?” This type of inquiry is usually more of a greeting than a true question. In this month’s newsletter Robin Charbit explains why sincerely asking someone how they are feeling can reveal valuable insights and set the course for a productive dialogue. All of us at Insight Principles How Are You Feeling? This seemingly innocent question is actually a powerful lens through which to navigate life. If
