There is an old adage that says "you never get a second chance to make a great first impression." Thankfully in my case I made a good (surely not great) first impression with my wife-to-be many moons ago. But I digress. If you're like most businesses, you have limited time, money and [...]

We’ve all heard the adage, Jack of all trades, master of none, but what if that’s not true? What if you could learn two or more languages at once and master them, rather than pick up bits and pieces of each one?

When we are born, the deoxyribonucleic acid/DNA in our bodies contains the blueprints for who we are and instructions for who we will become. For example, it can tell our eyes to eventually turn from blue at birth to hazel later on, our length to grow from 20 inches to 70 and direct a multitude …
Despite the old adage not to ‘judge a book by its cover’, facial cues often guide first impressions and these first impressions guide our decisions. Literature suggests there are valid facial cues that assist us in assessing someone’s health or intelligence, but such cues are overshadowed by an ‘attractiveness halo’ whereby desirable attributions are preferentially ascribed to attractive people. The impact of the attractiveness halo effect on perceptions of academic performance in the classroom is concerning as this has shown to influence students’ future performance. We investigated the limiting effects of the attractiveness halo on perceptions of actual academic performance in faces of 100 university students. Given the ambiguity and various perspectives on the definition of intelligence and the growing consensus on the importance of conscientiousness over intelligence in predicting actual academic performance, we also investigated whether perceived conscientiousness was a more accurate predictor of academic performance than perceived intelligence. Perceived conscientiousness was found to be a better predictor of actual academic performance when compared to perceived intelligence and perceived academic performance, and accuracy was improved when controlling for the influence of attractiveness on judgments. These findings emphasize the misleading effect of attractiveness on the accuracy of first impressions of competence, which can have serious consequences in areas such as education and hiring. The findings also have implications for future research investigating impression accuracy based on facial stimuli.
Cunningham’s Law is an internet adage that states “The best way to get the right answer on the Internet is not to ask a question, but to post the wrong answer.” It’s an interesting hypothesis for sure. And, if you’ve spent any time on the internet whatsoever, you’re likely well aware that posting something incorrect online is a sure-fire way [...]

Posted on August 3, 2016 When people are making a big deal about you... When they are carefully grooming you for a role as “World Teacher”... When they create an entire organization to support you in your role as a messiah-like leader... ...it seems to me that it would hard to just walk away from all of that! But walking away is exactly what Jiddu Krishnamurti did. As a young teenager living in India, Krishnamurti happened to run into a Charles Leadbeater, a leader of the Theosophical Society. The Theosophical Society attempts to teach methods of discovering the nature of god or gods, the origin of the universe, and the purpose of life. Theosophy is a considered by many to be a Western religion / philosophy that taps into Eastern and ancient teachings in an attempt to achieve enlightenment. Leadbetter was so impressed by Krishnamurti, he decided that he was the “vessel” for the messiah-like figure Leadbetter and other Theosophists had been expecting, the World Leader. So Leadbetter stayed in India to oversee Krishnamurti's education. Leaders of the Theosophical Society created an organization called the Order of the Star in the East in order to support Krishnamurti. But Krishnamurti kept thinking for himself, and as a young man, he rejected his expected role as World Teacher. On this date in 1929, he dissolved the Order of the Star in the East, and he cut all ties with Leadbetter and the Theosophical Society. Krishnamurti ended up traveling the world and becoming a speaker and writer who explored psychology, meditation, and inquiry methods of learning. He said that there had to be a revolution in the psyche (mind) of every person – and he pointed out that such a revolution couldn't be brought about by outside forces such as a religion, a school, etc. I was interested to note that, although Krishnamurti was born in India, he died in Ojai, California, just 100 or so miles away from where I live.
