Empathy. I see it, read it and I suppose I’m both a student and teacher of empathy as well. Not a master. Is there such a thing? I was thinking today about how having perspective is an important attribute in order to achieve empathy. Your mission to achieve Superhumanness: If you are open to more […]

Some days I’m down on capitalism. But in truth, I’m for it. I know that capitalism is not failing society. People are. And frankly the ones calling the shots are putting self interest in front of societal interest. At a fundamental level, humans fail humans. And then I imagine, what would that look like when […]

Has anyone ever said to you “I quit you”? That sounds weird. And it feels even weirder. Well, I’ve been quit before. And again, recently. Any type of rejection feels that way – even if different phrases are used. Being quit is essentially being dumped, divorced or rejected. Being quit is when someone gives up on […]

I wish I didn’t have to read the news every day. A lot of people say “I don’t read it. I shut it out”. And I understand it. But I just can’t. The biggest reason is, I suppose, to be prepared. By knowing what is being said and done and the reactions of people, I […]

This morning my daughter climbed in to snuggle, but then turned on me and said “you ruined our fort, didn’t you”, as she heard her sister exclaim “our fort” from downstairs. And just like that, happy child turned to angry child. In truth her prediction was wrong this time. But chances were high that I […]

Reflecting on the meeting in Dubai where world leaders gathered to discuss the future of AI, I think about how we (little and unimportant people) might have a say in what world leaders (and/or Corporate CEO’s) are designing for our next reality. I am worried. Your mission to achieve Superhumanness: Get out there. Be a […]

We had a fantastic girl scout meeting this evening, where a troop leader shared the ins and outs of puberty to our girls. The faces were a mix of embarrassment and curiosity. On a spectrum between nervous and excited, most girls stood in the middle. Near the beginning of the talk, my daughter raised her […]

My resting heart rate was 42 today, so I showed my spouse my Apple watch and made sure he was aware how much healthier I am. Of course it’s one data point, and not the entire picture. He has a lower body fat and yes, he’s much faster on his bike. But at least I […]

Every day I talk to someone who inspires me. Maybe I’m lucky that way. But I need to, at a time when I’m faltering. I’m not sure what’s next in the big dreamscape I’ve envisioned. I was telling someone last night who gets business and earns a fantastic living, that I just need to get […]

Your mission to achieve Superhumanness: Stop trying to make sense of everything. Some things just don’t make sense. Be kind along the journey and remember, you got this! #makingsenseoutofnothing #makesense #beinghuman #armorup #yougotthis
