Trust can be easily broken but takes years to build.
If someone at work is breaking my trust, it will be very hard to repair the damage. Maybe even impossible.
In closer circles like in Kung Fu, both sides need to work on building the trust. I think it is easier to rebuild as both parties have the same goals and agenda. Most of the times anyway.
It is never fun to make mistakes. Especially when you never intended to make them.
Last class we were working with the lions and because we did not have lions for all students, we had to swithc the lions around. We did that without sanitizing the lions in between.
It is not fail proof- to sanitize the lions and we can not do it 100 percent safe. But we definitely need to make it as safe as possible.
So while it is never fun to make mistakes, we need to acknowledge them and learn from them. I believe we are better prepared for the next time we will do the lion dance.
The evolution in missile warfare has been amazingly progressing in the last 100 years.
(1) From firing shells with almost no accuracy. You shoot, you have no idea were it is going to land. Sometimes it explodes in your face.
(2) Through the more accurate but very static missiles - you shoot, and it is going to hit in the proximity of your target (but if your target moves, the missile will not follow it).
(3) Then came the shoot and have the ability to control and adjust where the missile is going to hit. So as the person shooting the missile, you have some control on directing where you are hitting.
(4) Then came the "shoot and forget". This is where you aim on a target and the missile is smart enough to follow the target even if it moves without the need for you to direct it.
(5) In the near future, we will have missiles that decide on the target using AI without any human direction (these actually already exist and operational but shh - don't tell anyone).
My blogs are evolving in a similar way... I think I am in stage (2). I write and it is hitting in the proximity of where I am aiming. Sometime it is a direct hit and sometimes it is not. I rarely get to stage (3) where I write the blog and then reflect on it and edit it before I send it. This is where I think I should be at as I am not sure about stage (4) or stage (5) - getting blogger to modify and improve my blog? getting an AI to write my blog?
So I am going to challenge myself to start writing my blogs but not submit them till few days after so I can have the chance to fix and make them better...
