Short, philosophical, memorable saying

The early bird gets the worm. What goes around, comes around. It's always darkest just before dawn. We carry these little nuggets of wisdom—these adages—with us, deep in our psyche. But recently we started wondering: are they true? Like, objectively, scientifically, provably true?So we picked a few and set out to fact check them. We talked to psychologists, neuroscientists, runners, a real estate agent, skateboarders, an ornithologist, a sociologist and an astrophysicist, among others, and we learned that these seemingly simple, clear-cut statements about us and our world, contain whole universes of beautiful, vexing complexity and deeper, stranger bits of wisdom than we ever imagined.Special thanks to Pamela D'Arc, Daniela Murcillo, Amanda Breen, Akmal Tajihan, Patrick Keene, Stephanie Leschek and Alexandria Iona from the Upright Citizens Brigade, We Run Uptown, Coaches Reph and Patty from Circa ‘95, Julia Lucas and Coffey from the Noname marathon training program.We have some exciting news!

Dr. Rebecca Swift is the Global Head of Creative Insights at iStock and Getty Images, where she leads the team responsible for analyzing trends and developing research in visual communications. Rebecca joined the company over 20 years ago as one of the founding members of the team that introduced visual research methodology to the industry. Rebecca leads global research projects investigating the future of visual communications and works with a wide variety of brands in industries ranging from non-profit to fashion. She has presented her findings all over the world. Rebecca has been recognized as one of AdAges 20 Women to Watch and was Campaign magazine's Female Frontier honoree. She was also awarded the Most Influential Leader in UK Visual Media in 2020. Rebecca has a PhD in Photography. On this episode of Destination on the Left, I talk with Rebecca about generative AI and how it can help you create new ideas, plan visual storytelling content, and find fresh perspectives. We also explore how destination marketers can use it and why travel is one industry that should move with caution when thinking about AI generative imagery. What You Will Learn in this Episode: Benefits of using generative AI in improving creativity and visual storytelling Why travel is one industry that should move with caution when thinking about AI generative imagery How Getty Images address legal and ethical concerns in their use of AI-generated imagery The need for government regulation of AI to address copyright and trademark concerns How tools like generative AI can spark new ideas, fuel your artistic endeavors, and help you plan visual storytelling content Unlocking Creativity with Endless Possibilities In the ever-evolving technological landscape, the rise in popularity of artificial intelligence (AI) has hugely impacted creative industries, including that of visual storytelling. Rebecca joins us on the podcast to explore generative AI and how we can apply it to images and photography. Generative AI goes way beyond traditional AI by not just analyzing existing content but also creating new and unique images that help tell a story. Rebecca explains how, by harnessing the power of generative AI, photographers and creatives can find fresh perspectives and ignite their creativity to tell compelling visual stories. Legal and Ethical Considerations in AI-Generated Content Rebecca explains that while generative AI opens up many possibilities, it's important to carefully navigate legal and ethical terrain. She highlights why copyright and trademark concerns need to be addressed, especially when it comes to using famous places, landmarks, or people in AI-generated content. Rebecca also emphasizes the commitment of Getty Images to protect the rights of creators and ensure they have proper permission for training models using AI content. The Impact of AI on Visual Industries We dig into the influence of AI on the visual and creative industries, such as photography and content writing. Although AI has transformed the way we capture, edit, and share images and has revolutionized the photography ecosystem, we also need to understand its limitations and be aware of potential flaws, particularly as destination marketers.

Mark's week sucked and we hadn't even talked about the primaries or "purple families"!
When I went to the one room country school as a child, I learned many pioneer Proverbs, or adages, which according to an old Webster's dictionary is "an ancient proverb." The adage I learned about weather, I thought perhaps was based on scientific fact. When the rooster crows at night, he tells us rain is in sight. Swallows fly high - clear blue sky, swallows fly low - rain, we shall know. The adages we learned are part of our American heritage. It was interesting for me to read about the teacher who asked her class to write some original thoughts on those ancient adages. Perhaps you may feel the students deserve an "A" for their originality. Here are a few of their thoughts: The grass is always greener when you remember to water. A Rolling Stone plays the guitar. A bird in the hand is a mess. No news is no newspaper. It's better to light one candle than to waste electricity. It is always darkest just before I open my eyes. We have nothing to fear but our own principal. If you can't stand the heat, go swimming. Never put off till tomorrow what you should have done yesterday. A penny saved is nothing in the real world. The squeaky wheel gets annoying. To err is human, to eat a muskrat is not. I think, therefore I get a headache. Laugh and the world laughs with you. Cry and someone yells "shut up." There is nothing new under the bed. Don't count your chickens - it takes too long. A journey of 1000 miles begins with a blister. Early to bed and early to rise is the first in the bathroom. Do you recognize the old pioneer proverb or adages of long ago? "Early to Rise." I remember being told what would happen if you went to bed early. "Early to bed, early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise." Many words of wisdom in those ancient proverbs of long ago. Those adages may change with the changing times. Warm Thoughts: men occasionally stumble over the truth but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing happened. Winston Churchill. Do you have an adage to share?

What is creativity today? How has its role changed? Also, how does one sell great work? In this episode, we talk about how creativity as a function and a process has evolved. Creativity, today, has to be more original. It has to acknowledge that the world has changed. It has to be from the heart. And finally, creativity has to connect.

Today, Daniel & Katie try to formulate "adages" for their 30s lives. Or is it adagé? Basically short statements expressing a general truth. These are the "statements" that we've realized to be true... (90% of the time). Just listen, but don't take notes heh ;-)

Our Best Interests: Life Lessons from Childhood Trauma to Adulthood
Each episode of Our Best Interests is guided by an adage. Adages are little bits of folk wisdom that can apply to a variety of situations. In this series, they will be used to shed light on life lessons learned by adoptees by situating our experiences within greater "truths" about humanity. The goal is to help the listener connect the adoptee experience to something already understood in a way that is both meaningful and memorable. Original song "Muse" composed and performed by David Russell (with Rob Ellenberg, collaborator and producer).

Join us this week as we chat about the benefit of splitting up experiences that make you happy into smaller chunks and the “rewirements” Henny is working on as she continues through the Science of Well Being course she’s taking. We also discuss (and absolutely LOVE) Alicia Keys' memoir, More Myself. We know we mentioned it before, but now that Sandy is almost finished it, we’ve got lots to say. Finally, we muse about what it means to have real dialogue - to really hear and process other people’s ideas - and to do it in a non-judgemental way that allows both parties to learn and grow. It also turns out that we just can’t help ourselves but use old adages and expressions! Are you reading anything you think we should discuss on the podcast? Let us know!

Best-selling author Malcolm Gladwell has written several very "insightful" books.
Study Guide Shabbat 32 Today’s shiur is dedicated by Mona and David Schwartz and family in memory of Mary Horowitz, Miriam Etel bat Aharon Halevi z”l, on her 26th yahrzeit. The mishna cites are three reasons why women die in childbirth - for not being careful about nidda, challa and lighting Shabbat candles. Why specifically these three? How can one relate to this troubling source? The gemara focuses on the vulnerability of women at the time of childbirth and stresses that when people are vulnerable that is when they are most likely to be punished. Adages are brought to prove that. When is the parallel time for men - when are they most vulnerable? The rabbis also offer opinions about what sins cause one's children to die young. Is it vows, not learning Torah, mezuza, tzitzit? The rabbis used these difficult, unfortunately common, phenomenon (women dying in cihldbirth and children dying young) as an oppportunity to encourage people to be careful about keeping mitzvot.

This week we begin with Battle Music, share sage wisdom with our adages, discuss "Broad" Appetit, and write a quick shitty tune about Brainwashing. Then, two 20 second songs, and finally, a mini-epic about a disease--"the yucks"--spread at social events through personal interaction. This song is about the survivors, men who stay at home by themselves, and one of those men, who clones himself and decides to have sex with the clone survives. Oh boy, this one's a doozy!
The Mind Renewed : Thinking Christianly in a New World Order
By popular demand, we welcome back Dr. Tim Ball—a "retired" lecturer in geography and historical climatology at the University of Winnipeg, and now perhaps the most entertaining and informative after-dinner speaker on the planet—for a second conversation on his "new adages for the technocratic era". During the last conversation, Dr. Ball said that maybe we would need a second programme to cover his adages adequately. Many listeners picked up on that, and asked me to invite him back for a second chat. So I did, and here it is—another fun, wide-ranging and provocative conversation. "Adages are proverbs, or short memorable statements, expressing a general truth, usually based on experience. Many have no relevance to the modern world, such as "Don't look a Gift Horse in the mouth", but many are still useful: “Where there is smoke there is fire.” What we need are new adages for the modern technocratic age."--Tim Ball, "New Adages for the Technocratic Era".

Scott Wintrip, author of High Velocity Hiring, discusses a range of hiring and cultural issues around creating a high performance team. He explains that instead of hiring when an opening occurs, leaders should know their ideal candidate profile, and interview ideal candidates continually. This builds relationships and keeps high potentials in a hiring inventory pipeline, and ready for a position when it comes open. Key Takeaways [2:25] In our fast-paced world, the adage about being slow to hire is wrong. An empty seat is an open wound. The manager has to do their own role, the work of the empty seat, and the work of hiring someone to fill it. A manager doing three jobs is hiring while distracted. We need people readily available to power companies. The first job of leadership is hiring a quality team to lead. [5:51] Build an inventory over time by seeking referrals, having conversations, interviewing the best, and using them to fill positions in a continuing process to stockpile people who are ready as you need them. This takes half the time of rushing to fill an open spot. [11:00] Scott suggests using a hands-on interview where real sample work is completed. This circumvents the ‘tell, sell, and swell,’ of a normal interview and it begins the assessment process. Top talented candidates don’t enjoy a drawn-out multiple-interview process. They appreciate this process of looking ahead and being ready to work together when the time is right. It’s cultivating a relationship.[15:14] Start with a ‘hire-right profile,’ of a list of deal makers, deal breakers, boosts, and blocks. Know the candidate you want, before you start looking. Then talk to and interview people who fit the profile and do some hands-on work with them, looking ahead to future openings. Candidates will last for months or years in your inventory if they think you will be the right company for them.[19:27] Companies with a great brand can afford a grueling hiring experience, for a while, but turnover is high at those companies. Loyalty is earned through culture. Recruit from those companies whose employees are looking around. [29:26] Scott has always looked for things he wasn’t doing well to try to find a way to do them better. Early in Scott’s hiring career, he found he was a bad interviewer, so he decided to do the exact opposite of what he was doing, as a starting point. That started Scott on the path to hands-on interviewing. His passion comes from improving himself on his entrepreneurial journey. His transparency is relatable. [36:21] Find your hire-right profile in a four-quadrant grid. Upper left is Must Haves. Upper right is Must Not Haves. Lower left is Boosts. Lower right is Blocks. Think of people who have succeeded in the role. List their commonalities as Must Haves. Think of people who were unfit for the role. List their commonalities as Deal Breakers. Then add ideal qualities and negative aspects in the bottom quadrants.

You want to nurture and progress the prospect along the way. “We sell the best parts of ourselves. ... That’s not a very good indicator of whether or not somebody’s a fit.” “Candidates love a ‘red carpet’ experience; they loathe the ‘Survivor-like’ interviewing experience.” Good leaders want career seekers who look ahead, not job hunters focused on the present. “Companies can live on their brand for a while when it comes to hiring, but it doesn’t last forever.” “Our best lessons come from our mistakes and how we respond to those mistakes.” Engage with people instead of imposing upon them. Say, this is what we going to do, and this is why. How will we do it? “Every day I find something new about myself that I didn’t know and that’s pretty doggone cool.” “I’m a recovering perfectionist, as a lot of the leaders are.” Bio Scott Wintrip eliminates hiring delays by helping organizations across the globe implement a process to fill jobs the moment they become open. He’s the author of High Velocity Hiring: How to Hire Top Talent in an Instant (McGraw-Hill).

Benjamin Franklin was one of Colonial America's most successful entrepreneurs. In his autobiography, Franklin noted that one of his purposes for publishing the almanacks was to help people better manage their business affairs. Dr. Blaine McCormick, associate dean and professor of Management at Baylor University's Hankamer School of Business, likes to think of his almanacks as the Colonial business school.
