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

Students of political science simply have to accept this challenge. Yet, the diversity of political science concepts can be used as a powerful resource for learning, through intellectual techniques for stirring personal creativity.

A Life of Happiness and Fulfillment (Coursera)

What are the determinants of a happy and fulfilling life? This is surely one of life’s biggest questions, and a question that has interested many of our ancestors. Buddha famously gave up his kingdom in search of happiness. Several Greek philosophers (from Aristotle to Epicurus and Plato to Socrates) had their own views on what it takes to be happy. And of course, we all have our own theories about happiness too.
