Those Hands

Sure they can manage a mouse, start a car and hold a venti americano to go.

But can they throw a ball, bake bread, wield a paintbrush, manage a spade and double-dig a plot of garden?  Can they put up a fence post, calm a horse, create a block for row one of an igloo? Can they massage, soft, slow, vigorous, hard? Can they balance a giant tome in an ancient library while flicking through pages?  Can they 'palm off' a punch, pull off a cart-wheel or even do a hand-stand walk? Can they start a camp fire from wood and friction, skin a rabbit, build a rope bridge? Can they knit, pot and do sign-language?

Can they support a life lived long, wide and deep?

Hands: the greatest tool planet Earth has seen. Use them to the full: get out of your head more often.

Jagged Thoughts for Jagged Times, 190

In physics it has been noted in The Observer Effect that by measuring a system you alter a system.

Someone who was perfectly content asked 'are you happy?' may well feel that they are as not as happy as perhaps they would like to be etc.

It's worth bearing in mind for both surveys of company culture and customer satisfaction; the data you will be presented with is wrong.

Listen More 7

1. To the nuances and subtleties of their conversation.
2. To the lyrics afresh this time around.
3. To the sounds of the forest as you hike and stop conversation for a while.
4. To the inner voice for its wisdom. 
5. To some of the greatest speeches.
6. To your mother; she is invariably correct.
7. To audio business books and become even smarter.
