My 6-year-old daughter’s instruction for her reading work tonight: “Let’s start where I don’t understand”. God, I love this little girl.
Love this concept: blast radius. What is the blast radius of this decision, action, indecision, inaction, call, meeting, quiet time. Similar to first and second order thinking.
