  • Bucky Fuller said many times that you cannot push people, but you can pull them or draw them to your ways of thinking.
  • The way the trim tab and rudder on a ship pull the ship around is that when one turns the trim tab or rudder to one side, it forces the water around the ship to move faster on one side of the ship than on the other side.
  • This lowers the pressure of the water against the ship on that side of the ship.

  • A vacuum is a type of disturbance of the equilibrium forces in society that, in some way, speeds up the flow of energy in the area or direction in which you wish people to move.  This is the human equivalent to Bernoulli’s principle.
  • How this is done is subtle.  Ways to upset the equilibrium pace of society and societal evolution is to introduce new technology, present new information, draw attention to yourself or to something that upsets things in certain ways, or to send out love that draws people in.

    interesting discussion of trim tab and rudders by Lawrence Wilson, an MD. He quotes Richard Buckminster Fuller who said that for one person to change the entire world, they need "to act like the rudder and trim tab of a ship."

  • We live in a culture that very much fetishizes passion and certainty. I think sometimes people lose their way in the creative path because they’re being told to follow their passion. It can be a really cruel piece of advice
  • Forget about the notion of passion, and give your attention to your curiosity. Passion burns hot and fast, which means it can come and go
  • I have followed things in my life that barely had a pulse, but it was the only thing that was there that day
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • But part of that path, of leading a creative life, is to believe that there’s a reason that you’re into this thing, whatever it is.
  • Every time I hear someone talk about discipline all I see is the scratch marks on the walls they left with their fingernails. All that anxiety. You’ve got to take it easy on yourself. You’re doing an inherently weird thing. You’re investing time and money into making something that nobody asked you to do. It’s inherently a wacky thing to do. You’re going to have strange feelings, especially about the uselessness of it all. But then you think, I’m going to stay with it, because it’s more interesting than anything else.

Twitter follower following social media womenslearningstudio

  • witter gives us many ways to find relevant conversations. There are a range of searches, lists, groups, hashtags and apps to help us navigate to the people and the comments that need our attention. For most brands, the simple ‘following’ mechanism (great for personal users) is just too clumsy a tool to have much meaning or utility in itself, so more nuanced forms of listening have to take place. To judge an account by a ‘following’ number is to draw conclusions about the ways a person or brand uses Twitter to listen.

    Very good article on not overinflating value of our followers or what whom we follow says about us. Instead, look for value in other ways such as how those whom you follow/those who follow really listen to what is being said in social media. by Clive Andrews, NixonMcInnes (UK social media firm), 7/4/2012

  • Diversity is not just about accessing multicultural markets.  Companies must look more broadly to reinvent the way we think about how business is done.  How can diversity be pulled out of this commoditized mentality?  Diversity leadership must drive innovative perspectives.  Companies have not yet figured out how to unlock the potential within markets and processes that must be enabled globally.”
  • Diversity has allowed IBM to be innovative and successful for 100 years and to work across lines of differences in 172 countries, amongst 427,000 employees.
  • For example, are you paying attention to the Internet and how online communities continue to grow and represent different voices and points of view?

    Very good article by Glenn Llopis in Forbes, 6/13/2011, on importance of authenticity in diversity management. Not a numbers or compliance game but a real effort to get the most from everyone in an organization in order to serve/sell/reach out effectively to markets, communities, customers, and clients.

  • His new book The Power of Habit explores the science behind why we do what we do — and how companies are now working to use our habit formations to sell and market products to us.
  • every habit starts with a psychological pattern called a "habit loop," which is a three-part process. First, there's a cue, or trigger,
  • third step, he says, is the reward: something that your brain likes that helps it remember the "habit loop" in the future.
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • here's the routine,
  • "You'll put your shoes on in a different order without paying any attention to it," he says, "because once the cues change, patterns are broken up."
  • hat's when Proctor & Gamble reformulated Febreeze to include different scents. "As soon as they did that, people started using it at the end of their cleaning habits to make things smell as nice as they looked," he says. "And what they figured out is that people crave a nice smell when everything looks pretty. Now, no consumer would have said that. ... But companies can figure this out, and that's how they can make products work."

  • In fact, the lecture-dominated course runs completely counter to what we know about the importance of formative assessment, high-level questioning and discussion, differentiation, and attention to metacognition – all at the highest levels of effect size in Hattie’s research.
  • If the goal is to help learners make meaning of and transfer content in the future, then they have to be coached in how to do so. Coaches lecture, of course. But for far briefer periods and not for most of the course.
