And a whole new definition of the word "practical"
Are you paying attention to what rocks your world or even your kid’s world? Or are you too practical to consider your passion as a career choice (like Kathleen until she walked away from big pharma and took on filmmaking and radio)?
Enter the world's leading thinker on creativity, Sir Ken Robinson...
We’ve all had those moments where we start doing something only to look up from the clock five hours later unsure of how time flew by. Well next time take a closer look at what you were doing because as Sir Ken suggests, there’s a good chance you were in your element—that sweet spot where natural ability meets pure bliss.
Sir Ken talks about how to find that thing that lights your fire, and the barriers we face including schools, well-meaning parents, family and friends, our own minds, and society as a whole. His stories will rattle your cage and help you see what's possible.
And if you're still caught up on 'practical' (for yourself or your kids), be sure to also listen to Kathleen's monologue. She's got a perspective that might have you changing your definition of the word.
Listen to Kathleen’s interview with Sir Ken Robinson.
