we are responsible for our own learning.

I'm reading the book Art of the Long View (planning for the uncertain future) by Peter Schwartz

What I'm picking up from this book so far: scenerio planning
thinking ahead to the future
atitude is everything

From New York magazine:

an article on the real estate markets

an article on malcolm x, the conspiracies surrounding his death and assassination, the thoughts of his alleged assassin after being released from imprisonment.

And from the libray:

the debut of my book discussion group, , a modest success attended by two faithful customers. discussion ran the gamut from politics to trashy romances.


books discussed: god is not great: how religion poisons everything by christopher hitchens, letter to a christian nation by sam harris, obama from promise to power by david mendell, a woman in charge, life of hillary rodham clinton by carl bernstein, the interpreter by sue kim, waiting by ha jin, curious incident of the dog in the nighttime by mark haddon.

it is not done well; but you are surprised to see it done at all.
