Not Brain vs Heart. Brain + Heart

Reason and passion are like the rudder and sails of your life (ship). If either your reason or passion are found lacking you might be tossed adrift or held at a standstill out on the ocean.

If you act in reason alone you'll feel trapped and confined. You'll just spin your wheels.

If you act in passion alone you'll cause your own destruction. You've got to have a plan for your passion but don't let they plan get in the way of your passion.

Let your reason take your passion to its pinnacle. Let reason direct your passion and let passion spark your reason.

It's like passion and reason are two friends that you have over for dinner. You wouldn't talk only to one friend and ignore the other, doing so would be rude. If you pay attention to just the one friend you end up making both of the mad at you.

God rests in reason and moves in passion. So should you rest in reason and move in passion.

Thanks Kahlil Gibran

Success Metric

My wife teaches piano to buy our groceries and fund our sons ESA (Educational Savings Account). Each student gets one lesson per week, four per month. She told me last night that the things that suck the life out of her and suck the fun out of what she does are students that don’t want to be there and parents that don’t care either. I asked her how many lessons it takes for her to know that a student is not serious about learning to love the piano the way she does. She said, “I can tell after 3 lessons.” The students progress is proof that they are internally motivated to learn what she teaches them. It is also proof that there is a support person (usually a parent) that creates a supportive environment around them that is conducive to practicing, learning, and progressing. I had an idea for her business. All current students and new students will undergo a one month (four lesson) assessment period during which Kacey will decided whether or not to keep the prospective student on. Qu...
