  • Managing Impulsivity
  • Listening with Understanding and Empathy
  • Highly effective people spend an inordinate amount of time and energy listening (Covey, 1989).
  • Senge, Roberts, Ross, Smith, and Kleiner (1994) suggest that to listen fully means to pay close attention to what is being said beneath the words—listening not only to the "music" but also to the essence of the person speaking; not only for what someone knows but also for what that person is trying to represent
  • our inclination and ability to find problems to solve.
  • Thinking Flexibly
  • Flexible thinkers display confidence in their intuition
  • They tolerate confusion and ambiguity up to a point, and they are willing to let go of a problem, trusting their subconscious to continue creative and productive work on it. Flexibility is the cradle of humor, creativity, and repertoire. Although many perceptual positions are possible—past, present, future, egocentric, allocentric, macrocentric, microcentric, visual, auditory, kinesthetic—the flexible mind knows when to shift between and among these positions
  • Thinking About Thinking (Metacognition)
  • Striving for Accuracy
  • Whether we are looking at the stamina, grace, and elegance of a ballerina or a carpenter, we see a desire for craftsmanship, mastery, flawlessness, and economy of energy to produce exceptional results
  • Questioning and Posing Problems
  • Generative listening is the art of developing deeper silences in oneself, slowing the mind's hearing to the ears' natural speed and hearing beneath the words to their meaning
  • Applying Past Knowledge to New Situations
  • Thinking and Communicating with Clarity and Precision
  • Gathering Data Through All Senses
  • Creating, Imagining, Innovating
  • Creative people are open to criticism. They hold up their products for others to judge, and they seek feedback in an ever-increasing effort to refine their technique. They are uneasy with the status quo. They constantly strive for greater fluency, elaboration, novelty, parsimony, simplicity, craftsmanship, perfection, beauty, harmony, and balance.
  • Responding with Wonderment and Awe
  • Taking Responsible Risks
  • Finding Humor You can increase your brain power three to fivefold simply by laughing and having fun before working on a problem. —Doug Hall
  • Thinking Interdependently
  • Collaborative humans realize that all of us together are more powerful, intellectually or physically, than any one individual
  • Working in groups requires the ability to justify ideas and to test the feasibility of solution strategies on others
  • t also requires developing a willingness and an openness to accept feedback from a critical friend. Through this interaction, the group and the individual continue to grow. Listening, consensus seeking, giving up an idea to work with someone else's, empathy, compassion, group leadership, knowing how to support group efforts, altruism—all are behaviors indicative of cooperative human being
  • Remaining Open to Continuous Learning
  • Intelligent people are in a continuous learning mode
  • They are invigorated by the quest of lifelong learning. Their confidence, in combination with their inquisitiveness, allows them to constantly search for new and better ways. People with this Habit of Mind are always striving for improvement, growing, learning, and modifying and improving themselves. They seize problems, situations, tensions, conflicts, and circumstances as valuable opportunities to learn (Bateson, 2004).

She's Gotta Have It: Cell Phone - 0 views

  • "Next time a teenager says, 'Mom if I don't have a phone,' or 'Dad, if I don't have a phone, I'm going to be a nobody,' they are being serious," said Robbie Blinkoff, Context's principal anthropologist. Blinkoff and his colleagues studied the behavior of 144 cell-phone users between the ages of 16 and 40 from several countries and found that teenagers were so immersed in the technology that they often saw little difference between meeting face to face and talking on the phone. A common scene they observed was a group of teenagers sitting together -- all with ears glued to cell phones -- talking with faraway friends rather than to each other.
  • While saying he didn't think the cell-phone-toting teens were intentionally acting rude, he said he suspects that a new kind of "digital divide" has been created, similar to the gap among PC haves and have-nots.
