The Anticipatory Leader: Principles to Make the World Work

Fuller’s Leadership Principles:

  1. Think comprehensively.
  2. Anticipate the future.
  3. Respect gestation rates.
  4. Envision the best possible future.
  5. Be a “trim tab”—an individual who can initiate big changes.
  6. Take individual initiative.
  7. Ask the obvious and naive questions.
  8. Do more with less.
  9. Seek to reform the environment, not man.
  10. Solve problems through action.

Man knows so much and does so little.

Parenting Mistakes

Courtesy of curejoy.com

Like them, love them, or hate them, we all have parents and the relationship we have with our parents or caregivers set the tone for all our relationships in life.

Conscious Parenting is about understanding that what you do and how you do it has a lasting impact on your children. Understand how even small things can have a lasting positive or adverse impact allows you to make conscious choices.

The alternative is to default to the way you were raised by your parents, which may or may not have been deliberate, decisive, or useful!

Most people go through life with no clue that what happened to them as children had a lasting impact on them. We are not suggesting that you blame your parents for everything wrong with your life. Assume they did the best they knew how and take it from there to make better choices for yourself.

Changing Education Paradigms, Fully Alive vs Nearly Dead

Disruption is here. We believe it is time to innovate and reinvent how we educate our children and re-educate our adults for today’s reality.

What would happen if we customized the learning experience to each individual?

Ten Principles of Zone Learning

Zone Learning is a way of teaching that taps the natural genius of the learner. Using these principles, the traditional classroom and student/teacher relationship are reinvented.

The joy of learning returns and a sense of awe, discovery, and wonder are ignited. More information is learned and retained, with a dramatically increased ability to recall as well as apply the learning to get results!

These ten principles will multiply results by 10x to 100x!

The next time you step into a classroom as a student or a teacher apply these ten principles and watch out for the transformation!

Everyone Needs A Coach

The world’s best actors, athletes, investors, and business people have coaches. Most average and ordinary people see having a coach as unnecessary, expensive, and a waste of money.

Really?

If a coach could help you to double your income, isn’t that a good investment?

World’s Apart: How To Build Bridges, Not Walls

Finding areas of disagreement is easy. We all have them. Have you ever tried to convince someone of the merits of your position and argued over it for hours, only to find that you both became more entrenched in your point-of-view?

You Have Got To Have a Dream: Happy Talk

The World’s Major Religions – Who is Right?

This video from TED-Ed by John Bellaimey is a very good summary of the world’s top five religions.

I am right, no, I am right.

I believe that everyone, regardless of their faith, belief or religion should study all the major religions with an open mind. Naturally, many people believe that there can only be one true way, one right way and that all others are wrong. This thinking is black and white and does not take into account that the rainbow is comprised of many different colors and even black and white have varying shades of gray between them!

Thinking that in order to be right, others must be wrong automatically, is the cause of a lot of misery, wars, fights and needless suffering. It plays out in our bedrooms and our boardrooms.
