An Extraordinary Moment (Skillshare)

Learn to handle situations and identify opportunities before they arise, by developing personal insight. People in general are very predictable. We humans all want similar things and are driven by these desires. That being said, each and every situation is different. There are no ideal situations or predictable environments.

This requires us to be highly adaptable in our thinking. In achieving this goal we must study and develop a strong ability for personal insight. I look forward to being your guide through this process.
Create a demonstration show how to handle an uncommon situation. Please leave out any details such as; places, names, etc. This demonstration is supposed to be a fun representation of how people work in certain situations. An example of this can be found in the demonstration lesson of this class. I look forward to seeing all the ideas that come out of this.

  • Don't forget to leave comments and suggestions
  • Create a fun demonstration of situations the you have encountered
  • Do not use names, places, or any identifying information
  • Have fun and enjoy yourself

And whether it’s Christian fundamentalism, Islamic extremism, or militant atheism, religious dialogue remains tinted by arrogance, dogma, and ignorance.
