#190 - The Perpetuation of Ideas - And Why You Need To Be Careful

Often we think of ideas as abstract things that float around and either take hold or not,   But as subtle as ideas are, and as fragile as they seem, ideas have behind them something far more durable… let me explain…   Have you ever wondered why certain myths persist? Some people think that we have seasons because the earth is closer to the sun in its orbit and then further away… it actually has to to with the tilt of the earth. Something so simple is yet misunderstood my many… but what about more complex ideas or issues like stereotyping or beliefs about the human condition… you see the problem with bad ideas is that unlike a physical product, if it is defective there is no recall procedure, no quality control, no body putting measurements or writing product reviews… you you may be implementing an idea that you think is good and effective.. when in actuality it is broken… but who gets to tell what ideas are good and bad… who gets to tell if an idea should stick around… the problem with this is that looking at history we see people who thought only their particular ideas were work keeping around and it led to the deaths of many thousands of people… but that in itself is an idea that we need to get rid of… you can start to see the complexity of the issue…   The only way to really guard against bad ideas is to know that they exist and to try to make rational judgments about the veracity and effectiveness of our ideas… only we can choose to follow ideas down the path of action…     So just like we are asked to be responsible in our use of resources , we also need to be carful in our use of ideas… have all the ideas you want, listen to all the ideas of others but be careful in you judgment, action and perpetuation of ideas.

#187 - The Change In Format

This podcast has been unto this point a daily occurrence, I am going to be building in some "rest" time into the weeks which will allow me to do some reading, research and experimentation in the hope that what I bring to the podcast is enhanced by the time spent preparing. As such there will be podcast episodes during the week but not on the weekends, the weekly review will continue to feature as an accountability tool and reflection practice but may take a different shape. Stay strong my friends and keep moving !!! Tom.
