Obedience & Conformity
regarding a post by Steve Bartlett: Steve's original Linkedin post
Obedience & Conformity, is probably not that useful on the playground either.
These attributes I not only want taught but I want around me at school, work or the playground.
- How to positively manage ones emotional states.
- Treating others with kindness, respect, while also understanding when and how to create boundaries when necessary.
- Understand the value of hard work, and natural consequences.
- Be able to defend and challenge ideas. Understand, value and use the scientific process, logic, and, emotions for decisioning and challenging/defending ideas.
- Do what is right, even when its hard.
- Always Try, be willing to fail, and learn
- be curious, always ask why, realize framing the question is almost more important as the answer. Know how to look for answers, and how to challenge those answers for the 'truth'
- be understanding, empathetic and not fearful, but limit the blast radius of the bad/evil that you uncover, there is no time in life to waste giving any sunlight to the weeds in our lives, focus on the good you want to grow.
- No matter ones lot, you can choose to live either in a world of scarcity, or one of abundance. This isn't one grand choice but little ones done every moment.
- Be generous
- Participate, leave your mark.
