The perspective of explorers

Making time for Continuum- it's a helpful story- to remind oneself of.

Overview the Movie

The power of TEDx to hunt down stories worth listening to.

I shouldn't be surprised about the power of TEDx to hunt down stories most worth listening to- I was reminded of this the other day. As I plan for TEDxCalgary 'Wilderness' in the fall- one of the speakers I had in mind was Dr. Gabor Mate- I encountered his work whilst working at the Calgary Young Offender's Center.

As Curator I am constantly scanning, remembering and connecting stories in my head, as soon as I engaged with his work I knew that one day he needed to be a TEDx speaker. He would be a perfect speaker for the Wilderness them I thought about a month ago- I finally sent him an invite last week. As coincidences have it- a good friend of mine- posted this talk on FB Dr. Gabor Mate at TEDx Rio+20

His work connects with a number of other stories that I have wandered into in regards to the Human Condition. I think I might have to add it to the TED talks lineup I share at TEDxCalgary 'Wilderness'.

A country even better!

Good conversations lead to well considered actions. An invitation to participate in a conversation about the decisions that affect this great nation. http://justin.ca/soapbox/ - you can be a part of the conversation- I Rahim, a fellow Citizen am inviting you to join in- no time better then the present.

What I wish every MBA kept in mind...

Wise thoughts. Good to remind myself not to chase things...what is of value, how do I make the best decision in any situation etc. What they teach you at MBA School in INSEAD at least!
