Newsletter 43 : 1 november 2010

Greetings

Welcome to our latest newsletter. We like to offer a change from other newsletters which can demand an awful lot of reading…


Thought of the week

Knowing others is wisdom, knowing yourself is enlightenment

Lao Tzu, Chinese philosopher, C6 BC (or not, according to Wikipedia)


Card trick of the week

I liked the gorilla (dur 3:10)


Prediction for the week

OK, how’s this done? (dur 2:28)


Quotations of the week

The trouble with our times is that the future is not what it used to be

A poem is never finished, only abandoned

The best way to make your dreams come true is to wake up

Paul Valéry, French poet, essayist and philosopher, b 30 October 1871


Course of the week: Creating change

Sue Allen and Avril Woodward, 20-21 November, Bradford-on-Avon
We all have challenges in our lives. Whether they’re short-term crises or chronic issues, we can feel trapped in a cycle of stress and frustration. But there is a better way; we can tap into our mind’s power to create change for ourselves and for the people around us. This powerful workshop from Psychology of Vision uses the principles we use in our work, but takes them to a new level.


Entertaining pastime of the week

Another of those beautifully simple, but endlessly fascinating web pastimes (well, we thought so).


Inspiring video of the week

Well, they say that most communication is non verbal, so this week’s TED presentation by Miwa Matreyek has no words (dur 11:12).


Google search of the week

Try entering “anagram” into Google. Alright, it’s not that funny, but we smiled.


All contributions welcome.
Thanks this week to Dave Harries of BizView
and Phil Cheeseman of 4-WORDS Management Improvement Ltd.

If you have been, thank you for reading.
Kay and Jeremy
