| I used to think I carried some sort of "authority" to settle edit wars. My new perspective is different. Being right a lot of the time is no excuse for being overzealous. I no longer feel compelled to straighten everything out. From now on, I merely plant seeds. --Uncle Ed |
But I'm tired of having all my seeds trampled on, and being called ugly names by a vicious clique of hypocritical POV-pushers. So I'm out.
- Okay, I lost my temper. I admit it. But I have cooled off now. Let's see if I can turn over a new leaf, eh?
Be a catalyst
Catalysts try to resolve problems, not through the use of authority and special privilege, but by fostering consensus, gently nudging participants in the direction of more appropriate behavior and by generally reducing the level of confrontation rather than confronting users with problems.
Other words to live by
- Be true to yourself.
- Make each day your masterpiece.
- Help others.
- Drink deeply from good books.
- Make friendship a fine art.
- Build a shelter against a rainy day.
- Pray for guidance and give thanks for your blessings every day.
