A Different Lens

This week was top notch! I learned a lot in class and I finally got off crutches. And surprisingly I was a new man when I started to walk again. I had more energy and was just excited about life. It got me thinking about all of the things that happen to us during the day and how we look at them. On Tuesday, all of the teams presented their team charters. It was interesting to see the view points or the different lenses we are looking through with respect to this class and what we want to take away from it. There was a Team Salamander and the M Comrades to name a few. So as I continue to go through out the class this semester and in other parts of my life as well, I am going to focus on seeing life through the lenses of other people. Of course that will require me getting to know them and being personable and expressing interest in what they do. Honestly, it is the small things in life that make the biggest impact.

  1. I agree that it's the little things that matter most and really living each day purposefully. The little things add up to be big things over time. Every day we're working towards become an expert at something. Hopefully that something isn't just an expert Facebook user, or an efficient Netflix navigator!

  2. I've had a really good time in class getting to know everyone. We are all so unique and have a lot to offer each other. I'm finally realizing how important it is to get comfortable meeting new people and becoming genuinely interested in them. I think it's a personality trait our generation is lacking. I'm glad we've had so many opportunities to learn from each other, and you never know what doors may open.
