Friday's iLesson: The ABC of Independent Thinking
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(A) Recognizing External Influences
Your thinking does not exist in a vacuum and it is influenced by mental models from multiple external sources. For example, your family's mental models influenced your thinking while you were growing up and long after. Your education, the media, your peers all have influenced your thinking.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Friday's iLesson: The ABC of Being Outdoor
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


(A)  We are All part of the Ecosystem
You, me, all humans, animals, plants, rocks, ... are all part of the Ecosystem.

(B) What we do Indoor affects what happens Outdoor; what we do Locally affects what happens Globally.
When we're happy inside, we're smiling outside.  When we save watts inside, we help the environment outside.  When we carpool together, we make it easier to breathe for everyone.

(C) Explore, Enjoy, and Think of Sustainability
What's sustainability?  It means Being Outdoor again, again, and again.

Interacting with people is one of the essential activities you do as a human being.  But how do you interact effectively with another person when no two people are the same?    On this Friday's iLesson, "Fong Fong 18 Lessons" will share with you the ABC of Effective Interactions.

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Friday's iLesson: The ABC of Effective Interactions
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(A) Relationships
There are three components in an interaction, and foremost among them is Relationship.  It is important to recognize that when you interact with a person, you are building a relationship with another human being, and at the same time, the other person is building the same relationship with you.

(B) Opinions
The second component is Opinions.  Since no two people are the same - each of us has unique personalities, experiences, and backgrounds - we, of course, have different opinions.

(
C) Interactions
An effective interaction, then, is preserving the same relationship while exchanging different opinions.
