This document outlines notes from a presentation given by Shawn Ellis on navigating change and cultivating resilience. Some of the key points discussed include that one's quality of life is directly tied to their ability to tolerate uncertainty. It also discusses finding meaning and purpose even during difficult times, being flexible in how goals are achieved while staying true to core values, and the importance of service and taking action to create lasting change as outlined by the principles of Rotary International. The presentation encouraged participants to thoughtfully consider their responses to challenges and align their thoughts and actions with their highest self.
