I was in Durham in July/August for an international academic conference; beautiful!!! 😊

As an expert in first-century media culture--where orality is supreme versus literacy--Richard Horsley demonstrates in this important essay how the Johannine tradition moved from preaching within orality culture to the preservation of those deliveries in written form.

It seems like everyone meditates now. But what if we meditated together--on our shared human experience? Dig in and find out.

Watch this space! The @Korn_Ferry Institute (KFI) and the @whartonbrain (WiN) are pioneering a new collaboration to integrate well-validated psychometric approaches with advanced neuroscience-informed methodologies to promote a deeper understanding of leadership dynamics in business. Together, we aim to illuminate the foundational talents, traits, and motivators that have long remained hidden within the black box of the human mind, bringing unprecedented precision and insight to the art and science of leadership. WiN Director @MichaelLouisPl1 added that this partnership leverages a collaboration with Philadelphia startup Lazul, co-founded by former WiN postdoctoral fellow Nicholas Angelides, PhD and CEO Drew Bregman, which is pioneering the translation of brain-based insights into scalable solutions for talent discovery, development, and performance optimization.

We shouldn’t ask kids what they want to be when they grow up. It encourages them to define themselves in terms of work. Who we become is not a question of career—it’s a matter of character. The highest aspiration is to be a person of generosity, integrity, humility, and wisdom.

Every time I feel like whining I think of my dad under a car with a socket wrench & hammer in the dead of winter, in & out of work in my childhood, coming home reeking of motor oil & antifreeze, & my mom driving a bus & cleaning schools. That's real work. What they hated most was other people complaining or, worse, being lazy.

Most people are loss averse. Here is how neuroscience can make people more win-oriented (so to speak). This has huge implications for all of life. Are you running toward or away from things? @MichaelLouisPl1 on the Huberman Lab podcast out now:

Duggar Baucom coached college hoops for 27 years. At VMI, beat Kentucky at Rupp. Finished his run as HC at The Citadel 3 yrs ago. Since, he's studied a 588-page guide. He aced a 200-question test. He's now, a certified, licensed, historic tour guide in downtown Charleston. Just loved doing this story today.

If you start the movie "Hoosiers" at 10:07 p.m. and 48 seconds tonight, you'll ring in the New Year just as Jimmy Chitwood hits the winning shot. No need to thank me.

In 2018, Putnam County was down 11 points with 30 seconds left. The opposing team fouled on purpose to let Blake, who has Down syndrome, have an unforgettable moment ❤️
