Next Post: #WordOfTheDay: Magniloquent
So .. .earlier this week I was listening to what’s called an Inner Circle Audio. It’s basically something to help you develop not only as a person but, you know, as an entrepreneur and as someone who can be a positive influence on the world.
Well, one of the things it talked about in that audio is: “What are your non negotiables?”
And I’ll provide a link HERE for that blog post.
One of the non negotiables I decided to do for myself is to learn something new every day.
Now, recently I’ve been watching TED videos and you know that is a great and easy way to do that, get that 20 minutes in a day of listening to a good audio – something that interests me, something that I’m PASSIONATE about … and so TODAY I watched a video called “My Stroke of Insight” from the “Brave Neuro World” Netflix playlist by Jill Bolte Taylor.
And this 16-17 minute video? … It’s very hard to explain what I went through listening to the story of this woman who with clarity and insight and … just … BRILLIANCE …
She was able to not only tell you her background of being a neuro anatomist, but how she was able to study he rbrain from the inside out when she had a stroke. And what she experienced. And it – it really hit home for me.
It was a LITTLE emotional, so I WILL WARN you of this, but …
It was emotional for me because I experience a life threatening situation and do not remember what happened after I lost consciousness…
And I hear stories like hers … but her explanation was just so touching and so moving and it’s something that I’ve been looking for for a while.
Y’know, I’ve got life mentors – life coaches – y’know people in my life that I look up to in so many different ways … How they talk about how you should be MEDITATING and I’ve heard that meditation can lead some people into states or feelings of nirvana, and Jill – in a moving demonstration and less than 20 minute speech gives you an idea of how your brain works, and the hope and knowledge that you can achieve a similar state without actually being in a life threatening situation.
So, I’m going to provide the link for you here as a YouTube embedded video for your reference and so you can watch it when you have the time …
But I also wanted to provide you with a funny, quick little YouTube video of Bo Burnham who did a really great audio / song that I absolutely just love and it totally fits, so …
Below you’ll find the 2 videos that I’ve just referred to.
