In this episode, I explore the virtues of dogmatic dualism. Yes, I get some things are nuanced, but the vast majority of things are not: good/evil, right/wrong, black/white, yes/no, masculine/feminine; light/dark. I am not against nuance per se, but only as long as we don't forget the essential core truths that right 90% of the time. Yes, this episode, is a celebration of your conservative uncle, one of the most unnuanced people that that you know. He may think simplistically, but he's probably right most of the time. Trust dogmatic binary. Be skeptical of nuance before deviating from core truths. I explore this work through the work of Randy Pausch's Last Lecture, and the work of Carl Jung. I also offer an exercise from Pausch's book that will help connect you to the core dogmatic dualism that you should embrace.

I have stayed VERY VERY far away from the word “HACK” when it comes to this podcast, because for the most part – I don't believe there are hacks. I *CERTAINLY* don't believe in business marketing hacks that will make all of our dreams come true if only we find the sneaky shortcut to growth and success.And it's not that I don't WANT to believe in hacks… of course I do! How great would it be if there was a magic easy shortcut solution to success.But, as professor Randy Pausch (and author of The Last Lecture) said:“A lot of people want a shortcut. I find the best shortcut is the long way, which is basically two words: work hard.”So. Let it be known, none of what I'm sharing today is a shortcut. BUT, when it comes to productivity, and specifically those of us who have really struggled to ACTUALLY DO THE THING WE KNOW WE WANT TO BE DOING. The really wonderful news I have for you today is that actually… there are some hacks! There are some tools and strategies you can try that really do make a difference when it comes to our ability to get stuff done.MAKING GOOD SHOWNOTES:https://makinggoodpodcast.com/243CONNECT WITH ME ON INSTAGRAM:https://instagram.com/laurentildenGET 100 MARKETING PROMPTS (free!):https://makinggoodpodcast.com/100promptsStuck on what to say in our marketing?

In this profound episode of Inspiration Nation, hosts Lee Kemp, Jose Noya, and Ryan Boniface engage in a riveting discussion about seizing life's opportunities and living without regrets. Drawing inspiration from the late computer science professor Randy Pausch, who bravely faced pancreatic cancer, they ponder his impactful words: "It is not the things we do in life that we regret on our deathbed, it's the things we do not do." This central quote encapsulates the episode's theme—embracing life's moments and the significance of taking bold chances.Throughout the conversation, Lee reflects on missed personal opportunities and expresses a renewed commitment to pursue future endeavors without hesitation. Similarly, Ryan emphasizes the importance of not letting fear of failure prevent taking chances that could lead to regret. Jose's contributions, seasoned with anecdotes and personal reflections, reinforce the message that life's finite nature should inspire more boldness in our decisions. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to break free from the shackles of hesitation and fear, encouraging listeners to act bravely and live fully.Remember to follow us on Twitter @ListenToIN for more engaging discussions and updates.

Behind the lectern stands the professor, deploying course management systems, online quizzes, wireless clickers, PowerPoint slides, podcasts, and plagiarism-detection software. In the seats are the students, armed with smartphones, laptops, tablets, music players, and social networking. Although these two forces seem poised to do battle with each other, they are really both taking part in a war on learning itself. In The War on Learning, Elizabeth Losh examines current efforts to “reform” higher education by applying technological solutions to problems in teaching and learning. She finds that many of these initiatives fail because they treat education as a product rather than a process. Highly touted schemes—video games for the classroom, for example, or the distribution of iPads—let students down because they promote consumption rather than intellectual development. Losh analyzes recent trends in postsecondary education and the rhetoric around them, often drawing on first-person accounts. In an effort to identify educational technologies that might actually work, she looks at strategies including MOOCs (massive open online courses), the gamification of subject matter, remix pedagogy, video lectures (from Randy Pausch to “the Baked Professor”), and educational virtual worlds. Finally, Losh outlines six basic principles of digital learning and describes several successful university-based initiatives. Her book will be essential reading for campus decision makers—and for anyone who cares about education and technology. Elizabeth Losh directs the Culture, Art, and Technology Program at Sixth College at the University of California, San Diego.

This is a conversation I've really been looking forward to sharing with you. Jose Rios is a legend in our field, particularly if you're a behavior analyst in California, where he's based out of.  In this conversation, Jose recounts his more than 50 year career in providing ABA services to individuals with developmental disabilities. We cover the following: How he got started in the field at the tender age of 17. What the field of ABA was like in the early 70s. What it takes to provide amazing experiences for group home residents and staff. The founding of the Latino Association for Behavior Analysis. The evolution of behavior support plans over the years. Jose's intense mentoring program. What makes for good presentations. Jose is an avid reader, and we spent almost a half hour talking about our favorite fiction authors before hitting the record button. In the interview itself however, we do mention a few books and other resources that are more pertinent to the topic of Behavior Analysis, including: The various works of Dr. Gary LaVigna. The various works of Dr. John Lutzker. Teaching dating skills to individuals with disabilities (Cuvo et al., 1985). Vollmer et al. (1992). A content analysis of written behavior management programs.  Resonate, by Nancy Duarte. Presentation Zen: Simple Ideas on Presentation Design and Delivery (Voices That Matter) 3rd Edition, by Garr Reynolds. The Last Lecture, by Randy Pausch. The Supervisor's Guidebook: Evidence-Based Strategies for Promoting Work Quality and Enjoyment Among Human Service Staff, Reid & Parsons. This conversation is like a lesson in the history of Applied Behavior Analysis, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.  This podcast is brought to you by: ACE Approved CEUs from .... Behavioral Observations.

In this episode, we'll learn how Kobe and his Mamba mentality can help us in figuring out our passions and dreams.It's my birthday today, and while our birthdays should, maybe could be a fun time, it can bring up many different emotions. For me personally, I get deep feelings of survivor's guilt. It can be so challenging to navigate this world, and yet so far, for another year I have made it. Don't get me wrong, the feelings are mixed with great joy and gratitude. The fact that I have yet another year, or at least day to keep making things and sharing them. This is why I am so big on the idea of leaving a legacy. One legacy that helps me a lot is that of Kobe Bryant and his Mamba mentality.FOLLOW JUSTIN JKL WEBSITEInstagram - @JustTriesYouTube - Just TriesTwitter - @JustTries_Tiktok -  @justtriesPinterest - JustTriesFacebook - Just Tries

Khi tôi dạy ở Đại học Virginia năm 1993, Tommy Burnett, một sinh viên 22 tuổi – người từ một nghệ sĩ đã trở thành một tài năng về đồ họa máy tính – muốn được làm việc trong nhóm nghiên cứu của tôi. Sau khi nói chuyện về cuộc sống và các mục tiêu, cậu ta bất ngờ nói: “Ôi, và tôi đã luôn có chính ước mơ tuổi thơ này”. Bất kể ai dùng các từ “tuổi thơ” và “ước mơ” trong cùng một câu đều gây cho tôi sự chú ý. “Vậy ước mơ tuổi thơ của anh là gì, Tommy?” – tôi hỏi. “Tôi muốn làm việc cho bộ phim Star wars kế tiếp” – cậu ta nói.

Năm 1969, khi tôi lên tám, gia đình tôi làm một chuyến du lịch xuyên quốc gia để thăm Disneyland. Đó là một chuyến đi rất dài. Khi tới nơi, tôi đã vô cùng kinh ngạc. Đây là khung cảnh kỳ diệu nhất, thích thú nhất mà tôi từng gặp.

Jai đã đợi ở sảnh, giảng đường chật tới mức bất ngờ – 400 người. Khi tôi bước lên bục để chuẩn bị các thứ, Jai thấy tôi khá bối rối. Tôi không hề tìm bắt ánh mắt của một ai. Cô biết tôi không dám hướng về đám đông, vì như vậy tôi có thể bắt gặp một người bạn, hoặc một sinh viên cũ, và tôi sẽ quá xúc động bởi những giao tiếp ánh mắt đó. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Như bao đứa trẻ Mỹ sinh năm 1960, mọt sách và sớm tinh khôn, tôi đã dành một phần tuổi thơ để mơ ước được trở thành Thuyền trưởng James T. Kirk, người chỉ huy của Starship Enterprise. Tôi không xem tôi là Thuyền trưởng Pausch, nhưng tưởng tượng ra một thế giới mà trong đó tôi dần sẽ trở thành Thuyền trưởng Kirk.

Có thể sắp xếp lại chính xác các ước mơ tuổi thơ của mình như thế nào? Làm sao để mọi người có thể liên kết được với những ước mơ tuổi thơ của họ? Là một nhà khoa học, trước đây tôi đã không mấy để ý tới những câu hỏi như vậy. Bốn ngày liền, tôi ngồi bên máy tính trong ngôi nhà mới ở Virginia, quét ảnh để chuẩn bị bài thuyết trình bằng PowerPoint. Tôi quen tư duy trực quan, nên bài thuyết trình sẽ không cần văn bản. Tôi thu thập 300 ảnh của gia đình, sinh viên và đồng nghiệp, cùng những hình đặc sắc có thể minh họa cho những mơ ước tuổi thơ. Tôi ghi vài lời lên mỗi hình để khi đứng trên bục giảng, chúng sẽ nhắc tôi cần nói những gì. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Một trong những ước mơ tuổi thơ của tôi là trở thành chàng trai bắt mắt và ngông nhất trong công viên giải trí hay trong lễ hội carnival.

Tôi yêu thích môn bóng bầu dục. Nhất là việc chặn cản bóng. Tôi bắt đầu chơi từ năm chín tuổi, và môn bóng bầu dục đã rèn luyện tôi, đã giúp hình thành con người tôi như hiện nay. Mặc dù không vào được Liên đoàn Quốc gia, nhưng đôi khi tôi nghĩ, tôi đã đạt được nhiều thứ hơn qua việc theo đuổi ước mơ này mà không hoàn tất được nó, so với việc theo đuổi và hoàn tất được nhiều ước mơ khác.

Sự tưởng tượng của tôi nhiều khi người khác khó có thể hình dung được. Cuối cấp phổ thông, tôi có một thôi thúc phải thể hiện những ý tưởng nung nấu trong đầu lên các bức tường ở phòng ngủ của mình.

Ngày 18 tháng 9 năm 2007, giáo sư tin học Randy Pausch, đã thực hiện bài giảng cuối cùng của mình trước 400 khán giả tại Đại học Carnegie Mellon. Vào thời điểm đó, ông biết rằng ông đã bị ung thư tụy và chỉ còn sống khoảng 3 đến 6 tháng nữa. Vợ ông không muốn ông phí thời gian cho việc chuẩn bị bài giảng, bởi nó sẽ choán hết mọi thứ và lấy đi những giây phút cuối cùng của ông bên người thân. Nhưng Randy chấp nhận thử thách, vì đó là cơ hội cuối cùng để ông làm một điều thật sự có ý nghĩa cho các con trước khi đi xa. Trên bục giảng vào ngày hôm ấy, Randy trẻ trung, vui tươi, đầy sức sống và khỏe khoắn trong chiếc áo thun đeo huy hiệu Imagineer của Walt Disney, thực hiện bài tập hít đất và sôi nổi nói về những ước mơ. Bài thuyết trình của Randy, “Thật Sự Đạt Được Những Ước Mơ Tuổi Thơ”, là những triết lý nhẹ nhàng nhưng thâm thúy về cuộc sống. Nó cuốn hút như chính con người ông. Thay vì nói về bệnh tật và cái chết, bài thuyết trình nói về sự sống, về việc thực hiện những ước mơ của chính mình, và tạo điều kiện cho những người khác thực hiện ước mơ. Ông đã sống thực từng ngày như đó sẽ là ngày cuối cùng còn tồn tại. Đối với ông, đạt được những ước mơ là được sống cuộc đời của chính mình. Hãy sống đúng đắn, ta sẽ đạt được ước mơ và nhớ đừng bao giờ từ bỏ. Cuộc đời của Randy chính là minh chứng hùng hồn cho những gì mà ông đúc kết. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Does every single person ever created have a purpose in life is it just for a special few? How does a sense of purpose relate to how we manage our time? In today's episode we explore more insights from Marcus Aurelius and also from Randy Pausch who reminds us that the barriers and blockages in life may be there for a reason we may have not fully realised - a reason that can help us press on when things get tough.

Saya membahas buku The Last Lecture karya Randy Pausch. Buku ini membahas soal bagaimana cara mewujudkan mimpi yang kita miliki saat kita kecil. Apa yang akan kamu lakukan ketika diberitahu kalau kamu hanya punya waktu tiga sampai enam bulan untuk hidup? Inilah yang dialami oleh penulis. Saat itu, dirinya didiagnosa menderita kanker stadium akhir dan hanya punya waktu hidup yang terbatas. Penulis memanfaatkan waktu itu untuk memberikan ceramah terakhir atau dikenal sebagai the last lecture, sebuah ceramah yang biasanya diberikan oleh para profesor di universitas untuk mempertimbangkan soal kematian dan merenung hal apa yang paling berharga. Namun, penulis tidak bicara soal kematian dan cara menghadapinya, penulis fokus bagaimana caranya untuk hidup. Itulah yang membuat buku ini berbicara soal bagaimana penulis bisa mewujudkan mimpi masa kecilnya dan berharap bisa membantu orang lain untuk mencapai mimpinya.

After being diagnosed with terminal cancer, a professor shares the lessons he's learned--about living in the present, building a legacy, and taking full advantage of the time you have--in this life-changing classic. "We cannot change the cards we are dealt, just how we play the hand." --Randy Pausch   A lot of professors give talks titled "The Last Lecture." Professors are asked to consider their demise and to ruminate on what matters most to them. And while they speak, audiences can't help but mull over the same question: What wisdom would we impart to the world if we knew it was our last chance? If we had to vanish tomorrow, what would we want as our legacy? When Randy Pausch, a computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon, was asked to give such a lecture, he didn't have to imagine it as his last, since he had recently been diagnosed with terminal cancer. But the lecture he gave--"Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams"--wasn't about dying. It was about the importance of overcoming obstacles, of enabling the dreams of others, of seizing every moment (because "time is all you have . . . and you may find one day that you have less than you think"). It was a summation of everything Randy had come to believe. It was about living. In this book, Randy Pausch has combined the humor, inspiration and intelligence that made his lecture such a phenomenon and given it an indelible form. It is a book that will be shared for generations to come.
