|The Meaning of Education?
Tuesday, September 15th, 2009
Back in my law school days, we spent hours upon hours debating who was smart, who wasn’t and what it meant to be smart. I thought the conversation was over when I graduated first in my class. I was smart.
Smart (at least for law school purposes) meant an extraordinary capacity to study non-stop and have an intuitive sense for what the professors looked for in exam answers.
More than ten years have gone by and I find myself being forced to completely re-examine the meaning of “smart” within the context of my own children and I have to tell you, it’s painful.

Use This Lesson From Burning Man 2009
Friday, September 11th, 2009
I’m back from my annual family vacation to Burning Man. As usual, it was a heart 0pening journey.
My honey is waiting for me to come to bed, but I wanted to let you know that I shared some of the learnings I gained on my last Play a Bigger Game NOW call.
When you subscribe to my Facebook fan page (wish it was called something else), you get those calls each month for free and can get access to the archived calls as well.
