2) #Introspection: The Myth of Free Will enlargeexcelevolve.com/2012/10/hug-an… my pov with @draminspires #a3r

Then we are asked to “kick the ball” - that is respond to the world. The “kick the ball” means a choice is made. The word decide comes from the root “to kill” as homicide and suicide also come from same source. So when you “kick the ball” you are killing all other possibilities. 
perhaps why less than we want happens..
The sub-conscious does not understand negative. So if you visualise what you don't want because of fears or constantly think about something fearfully, you invite those very incidents and people in life (which you want to avoid). That's why they say, "We get in life what we love and fear the most
we are prone to share negatives.. few people visualize that.. toward a decide.  more do.. are doing... toward suicide.. homicide

3) #Introspection: How serious are we about learning? censemaking.com/2012/07/26/how… sober view@cdnorman #a3r


illustrate the first point I simply ask people to consider the last conference they went to where there were options on what sessions to attend. How many of the sessions did they attend that featured content that confirmed or gently extended what they already knew versus content that was new? If you’re a health promoter doing community engagement work, sessions on Bayesian modelling for epidemics might offer far more learning than a session on working with diversity in communities (particularly if that is what you already do). Even more, how often do people go to sessions from people they know or have already seen speak? Chances are, many
he same thing goes for knowledge. Academics are famous for ending studies with “more research is needed”. We never seem to have enough knowledge. There are two problems with this idea.
zuckerman's .. imaginary cosmopolitanism

whoa... conviction..

We will not read it all nor can we hope to synthesize it all, but we can do much with what we have. Just looking at my own personal library of physical books (not including all I have in the digital realm between books and papers) it’s easy to see that I have more than enough knowledge to tackle most of what I am facing in my work. Most of us do. But do we have the wisdom to use it? Do we have the systems — organizations and personal — that allow us to take the time and soak this in, share our ideas with others, and be mindful of the world around us enough to learn, not just consume?
When we spend as much time creating those spaces, places and systems, then we can answer “yes” to the question of whether we’re serious about learning.
