THIRTY YEARS AGO TODAY, April 6, 1994, marked D minus one of the Rwandan Genocide. Habyarimana, the President of Rwanda, and Cyprien Ntaryamira, the President of Burundi, both Hutu, was shot down by a rocket-propelled grenade. There were no survivors. The radical RTLM radio channel announced the deaths, blaming the assassinations on the Tutsi minority and urging Hutus to attack Tutsi and moderate Hutu, giving locations of the Tutsi and advice on killing them. The RPF (Rwandan Patriotic Front), and Hutu extremists each blamed the other for the attack. The FAR (Rwandan Armed Forces) military force refused to allow UN forces to inspect the site at the Kigali airport. This incident sparked the Rwandan Genocide, though the ground had been laid for months before as RTML continued broadcasting hate rhetoric.  The result: 800,000 people were killed and millions either internally or externally displaced.

Top 12 lessons learned from the book -"8 Rules of Love"

1) Knowing more about ourselves and what we enjoy helps us feel comfortable in solitude.

Solitude helps you recognize that there is a you before, a you during, and a you after every relationship, forging your own way even when you have company and love.

2) The Three-Date Rule:

Focus on three areas:

- whether you like their personality,

- whether you respect their values, and

- whether you would like to help them achieve their goals.

3) How you handle your differences is more important than finding your similarities.

4) We expect love to flow naturally, but this is extremely rare, and often it means that we’re not taking on the tougher issues.

We need to make mistakes, identify what we need to change, and work on doing better. This is where we grow as individuals and together..

5) We take pride in noticing our partner’s potential and urging them to fulfill it, but we don’t want to impose our goals on them.

Our goal is to simply help them get to the nest step in their journey, not the next step in our vision of what their journey should be.

6) Guide Your Partner to Learn in Their Own Way:

Be patient and thoughtful as they do the work, offering your time and resources and supporting them while giving them confidence to do it on their own.

Through this restraint, you’re developing patience and compassion.

7) Focus on the process:

Life is not spent at the pinnacle. Those mountaintop events are only a tenth of 1 percent of the experience. Winners are still learning, experimenting, performing, and struggling.

It’s all part of the journey, and it’s all valuable.

Watching your partner grow and being part of that journey is deeply fulfilling and exciting, as is your own growth.

When you’re a part of each other’s growth, you don’t grow apart from each other.

9) Win or Lose Together:

Every time one of you loses, you both lose. Every time the problem loses, you both win.

10) New Experiences & Experiments:

When you and your partner set out to try something new together. You don’t just learn something new – you learn about yourself and your partner.

When you accomplish something new together, you bring that experience to all areas of your life.

11) If we spend all our time post-breakup analyzing the breakup, we’ll never move on.

Use this time to rediscover solitude, refocus on your purpose and really get to know yourself.

We can lose ourselves in a relationship, so now we have to find ourselves in the heartbreak.

12) You can seek love your whole life and never find it, or you can give love your whole life and experience joy.

7 lessons from the book "Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus" by John Gray

1. Understanding gender differences: The book emphasizes that men and women have different emotional needs, communication styles, and ways of dealing with stress. Recognizing and accepting these differences can lead to better understanding and harmony in relationships.

2. Effective communication: Gray emphasizes the importance of effective communication between partners. Men tend to communicate to solve problems, while women often communicate to share emotions and connect. Learning to listen and communicate in a way that aligns with your partner's needs can enhance understanding and reduce conflicts.

3. Love and respect: The book highlights the importance of love and respect in relationships. Men typically feel loved when they are respected, while women feel loved when they are cared for and appreciated. Understanding and fulfilling these emotional needs can strengthen the bond between partners.

4. Emotional support: Gray emphasizes the need for emotional support in relationships. Men often withdraw to process their emotions, while women seek support and understanding. Recognizing and providing emotional support to your partner can create a nurturing and fulfilling relationship.

5. Managing stress: The book discusses how men and women cope with stress differently. Men tend to retreat and become more focused, while women often seek support and connection. Understanding these coping mechanisms can help partners support each other during stressful times.

6. Appreciation and gratitude: Gray emphasizes the importance of expressing appreciation and gratitude in relationships. Acknowledging and valuing each other's contributions can create a positive and loving atmosphere.

7. Maintaining passion and romance: The book suggests that maintaining passion and romance requires effort from both partners. Understanding each other's needs and desires, and making an effort to keep the spark alive, can help sustain a fulfilling and intimate relationship.

Here are the top 10 key takeaways from How We Change: (And Ten Reasons Why We Don't) by Ross Ellenhorn:

1. Change is hard. There are many reasons why we resist change, including fear of the unknown, fear of failure, and fear of loss.

2. Change takes time. It takes time to unlearn old habits and learn new ones.

3. Change requires effort. We have to be willing to put in the work to change.

4. Change requires support. We need the support of others to help us through the change process.

5. Change is possible. With time, effort, and support, we can change.

Here are the ten reasons why we don't change, according to Ellenhorn:

1. We're afraid of the unknown. We don't know what will happen if we change, so we stay in our comfort zone.

2. We're afraid of failure. We're afraid that we won't be able to change, so we don't even try.

3. We're afraid of loss. We're afraid of losing what we have, even if it's not making us happy.

4. We're afraid of pain. Change can be painful, both emotionally and physically.

5. We're afraid of change itself. We're afraid of the process of change, even if we know it's necessary.

6. We're not ready to change. We may not be ready to change for a variety of reasons, such as not having the right support or not being clear about what we want to change.

7. We don't know how to change. We may not know the steps involved in changing or how to overcome our resistance to change.

8. We don't believe in ourselves. We may not believe that we can change or that we deserve to change.

9. We don't have a strong enough reason to change. We may not have a strong enough reason to change, such as a health crisis or a relationship problem.

10. We're not willing to pay the price. Change requires effort and commitment. We may not be willing to pay the price to change.

If you're struggling to change, it's important to understand why you're resisting change. Once you understand your reasons for resistance, you can start to address them. There are many resources available to help you change, such as books, workshops, and therapy. With time, effort, and support, you can change.

Here are 10 key takeaways from the book "Leadership Is Language: The Hidden Power of What You Say--and What You Don't" by L. David Marquet:

1. Control the clock, instead of obeying the clock. This means setting clear goals and deadlines, and then empowering your team to figure out how to achieve them.

2. Collaborate, instead of coercing. This means creating a culture of trust and respect, where everyone feels comfortable sharing their ideas.

3. Aim for commitment rather than compliance. This means getting your team to buy into your vision, rather than simply following your orders.

4. Complete defined goals instead of continuing work indefinitely. This means setting clear milestones and deliverables, so that you can track progress and make adjustments as needed.

5. Improve outcomes, rather than proving ability. This means focusing on results, rather than on your own ego.

6. Connect rather than conform. This means being open to new ideas and perspectives, and being willing to challenge the status quo.

7. Encourage questions rather than demanding answers. This means creating a culture of curiosity and learning, where everyone feels comfortable asking questions.

8. Celebrate progress rather than perfection. This means recognizing small wins along the way, and not waiting for perfection before celebrating success.

9. Be a role model rather than a rule follower. This means leading by example, and modeling the behaviors that you want to see in your team.

10. Trust your team rather than micromanaging. This means giving your team the freedom and responsibility to make decisions, and trusting that they will do the right thing.
