Comprendre votre zone rouge…

Une activité importante de la vie est l’apprentissage, toujours apprendre… apprendre en creusant un sujet particulier, en développant une passion, en découvrant de nouveaux espaces, enfin apprendre en vivant pleinement !

Le post ci-dessous décrypte très simplement notre fonctionnement lors d’un apprentissage… c’est la traduction d’un article de Seth Godin – lien vers l’article original en anglais “How big is your red zone ?”

Rebuilding the world…

by Paulo Coelho :

A father was trying to read the newspaper, but his little son kept pestering him. Finally, the father grew tired of this and, tearing a page from the newspaper – one that bore a map of the world – he cut it into several pieces and handed them to his son.

‘Right, now you’ve got something to do. I’ve given you a map of the world and I want to see if you can put it back together correctly.’

He resumed his reading, knowing that the task would keep the child occupied for the rest of the day. However, a quarter of an hour later, the boy returned with the map.

The One Thing That Makes Love Work

From Steve Errey and the excellent blog www.lifehack.org

1) It’s important to know what you really need

2) You need to be in a place where you feel ready to be in a partnership with someone

3) You need to open up your baggage so that it doesn’t weigh you down or steer things in the wrong direction

4) Relationships aren’t about blaming someone else for what’s wrong or needing to be right

5) The things you like and love about your partner are what matter, not what you don’t like.

BUT MOST IMPORTANT THING :

Le mot et la chose (poème)…

Madame, dites moi un mot, et sur le mot et sur la chose.

On vous a dit souvent le mot, on vous a fait souvent la chose.

Pour moi Madame, voici mon mot et sur le mot et sur la chose, et sur la chose et sur le mot.
