Some days it seems I can't find anything to write about (or can't find the time), and other days there's too much. So here's some randomlies...
- An interesting little article 'What Do You Like About Your Job?' Most of us probably don't think about that a lot, but even if you're looking for a different job the author suggests asking yourself these questions: 1. Where do I find the most satisfaction? Is it in the process of doing my work or in the final outcome? 2. How do my values align with my work? 3. What do I want to say I've accomplished?
- The One-Page Calendar. This blew my mind. Click the link to see how easy it is to use...
- Good ol' Dietrich Bonhoeffer's "Theory of Stupidity." We have far more to fear from stupid people than evil ones. A few more tidbits:
- When we know something or someone is evil, we can take steps to fight it. With stupidity, it is much more difficult.
- Stupidity is worse than evil because stupidity can be manipulated and used by evil.
- He also argues that stupidity tends to go hand-in-hand with acquiring power.
- Who doesn't need some toast recipes?? I like the sound of peanut butter and tomato toast; baked bean toast, and if I knew how to use the air fryer, air fryer cinnamon toast.
