How to make work, play, and learning indistinguishable
February 6, 2023

According to Dr. Peter Gray:

“Follow your passions” is often the cruel instruction directed upon students during graduation ceremonies…

The cruelty of this statement lies in the fact that following your passions requires lots of time to play and explore…

But children are not regularly given this opportunity in our modern framework of education.

And contrary to popular belief…

When children engage in self-directed education, exploring their own interests, deciding for themselves what they would most like to learn…

Work, play and learning become largely indistinguishable from one another.

And if work is beginning to feel too much like work, and play is starting to feel like a distant memory…

It might be worth considering the following quote from Carl Jung…

“What did you do as a child that made the hours pass like minutes?  Herein lies the key to your Earthly pursuits.”

Until next time,
Kevin

Are you ready to facilitate transformation?
February 1, 2023

The public school system was designed to generate compliant factory workers for a rapidly growing industrial economy…

And now it looks like these very schools are struggling to come to terms with the fact that Artificial Intelligence models might be capable of producing not only passable, but in some cases exceptional outputs that may very well satisfy the requirements for graduation.

But most of the work that matters cannot be performed by AI…

Nor can it be outsourced to someone who can do it cheaper than you…

The work that matters are the soft skills, the real skills, the healing skills, the facilitation of transformation in peoples’ lives, exploring the foundations of relationships and human connection, the experience of nature and our human nature.

We weren’t taught those skills in school…

We discovered them through alternative forms of seeking and exploration…

By following our natural curiosities…

We learned to think differently than how we were taught in school…

And we learned that there’s a lot more to life than performing meaningless repetitive tasks in exchange for prizes…

But who will do the real work necessary to make things better?

To spread the message…

To facilitate transformation…

Will it be you?

Until next time,
Kevin
