“If one person calls you an ass, ignore them. If five people call you an ass, buy a saddle”.
When people give you feedback about something you’re doing, there is going to be “noise” in the system. You shouldn’t necessarily believe a small sample of feedback. But when a large number of people tell you the same thing, there is likely to be some truth to what they are saying.
Death is inevitable.
But we don’t talk about death. We shy away from it. We fear it.
Death and the idea of it, however, can also be helpful. By remembering the fact that we are going to die one day, we can gain great personal power.
I’ve been blogging for over a year now. It’s been an interesting exercise committing to roughly a post per week.
But aside from quantity, I’m also interested in quality. And so I’d like to ask you, the regular readers of my blog, for feedback.
“I wish I could play violin like she does.”
“I wish I could play basketball like he does.”
“I wish I had the technical skills that he has.”
Hi all,
Unfortunately I just went and released a few drafts of upcoming posts by accident. I’ve removed the online versions, but email subscribers will obviously still have copies.
You can safely ignore these – they are not finished and may not ever be published.
On the other hand, they are, perhaps, another kind of insight into my mind and my thinking…
