“It's good to go back and look at what other states are doing. For example, Mayo Clinics and the University of Minnesota had a collaborative grant program that we modeled our program after, so we went back to talk to them about the successes of their program. It's been very successful, the state is going back to fund it again, and it's resulted in a great deal of collaboration and specifically patented technology.” LooksStatesDealsTechnologySuccessfulExampleProgramUniversityFundGrantsCollaborationMinnesotaClinic Author:Brian Thompson
“Ceremony assists people to adjust to change (a marriage ceremony does this for families), to recognize achievement (a classic example is a graduation ceremony), to relate, to express love, and/or to establish a relationship. Ceremonies are the human way we have to signpost a deal such as a business merger, to trigger off a healthy grief process (such as in divorce or funeral ceremonies), to welcome another human being into the family. So Ceremonies have these excellent effects - they can be used further to announce intentions, to express loyalty and to reinforce a sense of identity.” PeopleWayHumansDoeUsedProcessHuman BeingsDealsGriefEffectsExampleIdentityHealthyAchievementIntentionDivorceLoyaltyWelcomeRelateExcellentClassicFuneralCeremonyTriggersMergersSignpostsMarriage CeremonyGraduation Ceremony Author:Dally Messenger
“From the internal reality, by which I means the totality of psychological experiences, it [science] actually separates us. Art, for example, deals with many more aspects of this internal reality than does science, which confines itself deliberately and by convention to the study of one very limited class of experiences the experiences of sense.” MeanDoeArtRealityDealsClassStudyExampleAspectPsychologicalInternalsConventionsTotality Book:Collected Works: Do what you will Source: Collected Works: Do what you will

“The book that influenced me most is Sherlock Holmes, which teaches you the way to deal with reality: to deduct. It teaches you to put together the signs. For example, I look at a person and I see their coat, their jacket, their handwriting, their iPhone, and I am able to deduct some details about who they are, what they wear, and what they do. For many years I was fascinated with Sherlock Holmes. The series trained me to look at the world through these sharp, unforgiving eyes.” WorldWayYearsLooksPersonsBookRealityEyeAbleTogetherDealsTeachExampleSeriesDetailsFascinatedCoatsJacketsIphoneHolmesHandwritingUnforgiving Author:Signe Baumane
“As I look back at the span of the Cold War in those early days, in the '50s, for example, there was a great deal of Soviet propaganda here in the United States, but it was clumsy, and it was anchored to a lot of ideological support in certain circles in America itself.” LooksWarStatesAmericaCertainUnitedDealsUnited StatesSupportExampleColdCirclesPropagandaSovietCold WarIdeologicalClumsySoviet Propaganda Author:Alexander Haig
“There is, perhaps, one universal truth about all forms of human cognition: the ability to deal with knowledge is hugely exceeded by the potential knowledge contained in man's environment. To cope with this diversity, man's perception, his memory, and his thought processes early become governed by strategies for protecting his limited capacities from the confusion of overloading. We tend to perceive things schematically, for example, rather than in detail, or we represent a class of diverse things by some sort of averaged "typical instance.” MenHumansFormProcessMemoriesAbilityDealsClassEnvironmentExampleDiversityPerceptionCapacityUniversalStrategyDetailsConfusionInstancePerceiveDiverseTypicalCognitionThought ProcessUniversal Truth Book:On Knowing: Essays for the Left Hand Source: On Knowing: Essays for the Left Hand
“One of the great awards from a chef's point of view are Michelin stars. The ultimate is three Michelin stars. For example, Gordon Ramsey has three Michelin stars. Having one Michelin star is a big deal, two is incredible and having three puts you in a bracket of maybe 30 chefs worldwide.” TwoBigsThreeStarsViewsDealsExampleUltimateIncrediblesPoint Of ViewAwardsChefBig DealBrackets Author:Paul Rankin
