Reading Response: Ch. 5 & 6
One thing that I learned about is the concept of “dagu- a word that means information, though it implies more than pure data” (135). To me, this is a more expansive and eloquent way of saying the common phrase “put your heads together”. I really like the idea that it is our duty to share our knowledge, rather than hoard it for yourself.
I connected to the Stockdale Paradox, which is the idea of staying realistic and hopeful at the same time (168). I think in today’s climate of injustice, a lot of people ache to find solutions to questions people have been asking throughout history. I think the Stockdale Paradox is a healthy mindset that gives people freedom to not have to be the hero, but rather a piece of the puzzle.
How do you find the balance between finding flow and knowing when to step up through leadership in an area that you are really passionate about.
