Episode #19 – Judging a Newspaper By Its Cover With Dan Nicholls
I met Dan Nichols when he was working at Squareflo a long time ago, we have a lot in common and think the same about a lot of things so we’ve been great friends ever since. Dan has since moved to the fine offices of Oh! Media (a division of Phoenix Group Advertising), a website design and development company in Regina, Saskatchewan.
I think there’s a major fundamental flaw in the way the majority of us think about our opinions. When we disagree with someone, we assume they are wrong (they very well may be) but to assume other things about that person based on their belief is the problem.
One of the most important lesson children (and most adults) must learn, is that just because you have a differing fundamental opinion or set of beliefs than someone else, doesn’t mean you can’t respect them and get along them just fine.
I’m a big fan of self education and these videos shared by a friend on Facebook were very enlightening. I think you can learn a lot from them. There’s four videos (they’re actually just audio on Youtube), roughly 10 minutes each. I know, long hey? Sorry. But it’s roughly the same length as your TV favorite show, weird. And you’re going to learn a lot about your mind. Let me know what you think (haha! Not literally).
Doubling Your Brain Power (Part 1 of 4)
If we forced kids to play boring video games all through school and into University they probably would hate video games when they graduate.
If we forced kids to play boring sports all through school and into University they probably would hate sports when they graduate.
How can we expect kids students to love reading when we’ve forced them to read boring textbooks all their lives?
I met Ryan Holota roughly three years ago on Twitter. Since then we regularly go for coffee or a lunch sharing ideas on how we’re using social media.
It’s all a rat race.
