“calm confidence in a person’s way of behaving”
Today’s MotD inspires us to remain confidently calm regardless of what’s going on around us. When we’re calm it’s easier to assess any situation and confidently know the next thing that needs to be done. When we allow ourselves that kind of presence we are able to rise to the occasion.
The confidence comes from knowing that when we are calm, we are better able to help others. To use the airline’s example, when we remain calm we can quickly put the oxygen mask on ourselves and then confidently help those around us put on theirs.
The key message here is that we can better help others, and ourselves, when we are poised.
How about you? Is poise a core value for you?

About the 2024 Mandalas of the Day
Each day I will create and post a mandala inspired by one of 366 “value” words chosen randomly. The objective being to discover for myself which ones would best represent my core values…and by doing so, I hope it inspires you to determine your own.
