Listening Skills
Someone said it a long time back to never stop listening. Being a good listener can be a great way to make professional friends and enhance your network. As a good listener, you understand what others are saying, which can help you make an informed decision.

In an essay I wrote, "only unaware practitioners use made-up #personas in their design work".

There is a difference between #characters and #archetypes. You can make up characters, as long as each character is based on a researched archetype.

People who make up personas are actually making up characters, but they make these characters without any grounding. There are usually no researched archetypes.

A new seismic study shows that Earth has five inner layers, not four as long believed. Inside Earth's inner core is an *inner-inner* core, a ball of white hot iron 1300 km (800 miles) wide. science.anu.edu.au/news-events/ne… #Geology #earthquakes
Researchers at Australian National University developed a clever way to sense seismic waves reverberating inside the Earth. Those echoes made it possible for them to sense the growing metallic seed at the center of our planet. nature.com/articles/s4146… #Perspective
The innermost inner core is Earth's fifth layer. Which means it is the perfect setting for a movie sequel that merges The Core with The Fifth Element.
1) Some long and loose ⛳️ thoughts on the big @PGATOUR news today from someone *insanely highly invested* in a family member who has been both inside and outside the Top 50 line and will be fighting every week for position:
2)The *methods* LIV took to exploit the vulnerability in the @PGATOUR are worth all the criticism, but the *insight* behind it was completely valid: the best players are not being paid enough for the value they bring to the sport.
3)The ONLY way to solve the problem is by 1) growing the pie and 2) redistributing it. The Tour was struggling to grow the pie because the best players weren’t all playing at the same time. It’s not far off from what we’ve seen w/load management in @NBA (who should pay attention)
#Perspective #Planning anyone (🙈🙉🙊) ?
2/res Ths who’ve never done #research in lifetime find it difficult to understand, why this is critical, for directing commissioning & using, good policy relevant research [An internal core of researchers is key to success]. For them ideas & analysis can be bought like software📦

(1) I wish I could get through to all the young agents about how unique and valuable this challenging market is for their skill development and long-term upside in CRE industry this market is. Only by battling through the GFC was I forced to evolve into the agent I became...
(2) ...while at the same time experiencing younger competitors bail from the industry while the more established agents created a window for me to catch up and then pass them by focusing on their private RE portfolios, time with their family or even more time golfing...
(3)...all because they felt they ROI on time invested in their brokerage wasn't worth it because there just weren't very many deals going on. Back then it was because of a total implosion in RE, while current conditions aren't as difficult, they are still challenging..

1. Our perspective is the lens through which we view the world and it shapes our experiences. 🔍
2. A negative perspective can lead to feelings of hopelessness and helplessness, while a positive perspective can lead to hope and resilience.
(1/?) Sometimes wisdom looks different than we imagine. When we’re frustrated, stuck at home, complaining, making mountains of molehills- we want wisdom to be easy. Instead we must go out and accomplish something, see how big this world is. How hard people work.
Only then we get real wisdom. And don’t worry, this ain’t some Mach tough love bullshit (not completely.) Because real wisdom is as graceful and kind as we imagined it would be. It desires a safe comfortable home for all, kindness of strangers and enjoying life. But it’s earned.
You won’t find that wisdom sitting at home frustrated. When you’re in that mode, you want quick fixes you call wisdom. You want the idea or imagine of wisdom, the picture of a smiling Buddha. But it’s just a picture. You gotta go out and see this world. See the plights of others.

#McSikhi was created by British colonials with the help of their Indian stooges (Singh Sabha,Tat Khalsa etc.). This was done after the fall of Maharaja Ranjit Singh’s #KhalsaRaj to the British colonials.
Before #McSikhi, Punjabis practiced #Sikhi of our Gurus.

"If you’re reading this, this fu$king brain cancer probably got me.
But let me be crystal clear while I’m able: I did not ”lose a battle” against cancer. This is a ridiculous, steamy pile of horse shit that society has dumped on cancer patients.

Western medicine, and Western culture, especially, is so uncomfortable talking about death that instead it created this “battle” analogy that basically shames people who die from cancer.
News flash: None of us gets out alive from this rodeo called life.

There is no shame in dying from cancer – or any serious illness. And it doesn’t need to be a battle. It’s a transition that each of us will go through. I was asked by a shaman, whom I spoke to after my 2nd brain surgery, “Are you running towards life or running away from death?”

Just a reminder...
"Hospitalizations", "ICU admissions", & "deaths" attributed to COVID-19 are all a subset of the total # of "cases" - and as such are subject to the case definition which only requires a "+" test result (with or WITH symptoms) usually within previous 30 days.

So, if you had a "positive" test result on admission to hospital for emergency heart surgery, etc. - and NEVER had or developed symptoms during your entire hospital stay - you would be classified as a "COVID-19 Hospitalization".

If you had a "+" test result & then died of traumatic injuries after an accident, committed suicide, or were already on death's doorstep & were expected to die imminently from cancer - yet had absolutely NO symptoms of COVID-19 - you would still be classified a "COVID-19 death".
