"An Invitation" Inspiration and Leadership

I recently watched a movie called An Invitation link: http://www.globalonenessproject.org/videos/aninvitation
and its was truly inspiring and sad. I feel truly sad about the fact that our planet is being ruined for our own consumption. We are truly more important then a shopping market or the things we could buy from the market. The film is about the disconection between modern people and indigenous people and the earth and its natural systems. We should all find our way back to being sustainable in an ecological way. Check out this clip if you haven't its truly a good film about people and prespectives as well as a good way to see life. I now want to make a difference even more to help humanity than before and feel truly inspired and you will too if ya check this one out!

Thanks for reading Aloha, Jon

Project Proposal Idea "Going Off The grid!"

I am choosing to do a paper for my final project. My idea is to write about my experience in taking a leadership initiative to be truly green and the experience of a typical person doing so and the hardships and changes that I experience daily to give insight to the actions required to truly set example through leadership to promoting and changing for our children and our future! The theme will be like the show produced by K. Spurlock called 30 days. The show is about a typical person making some life change and the experience of being a different person for a month or the experience of a hardship or limitation to show a inside look of what these life experiences are like. I live off the grid with solar and water catchment. I have lived my whole life on the grid and always saw electric bills a normal thing and being unconcious of my power consumption. I have awoken to a revelation of green perspective and practice and want to share my life changing experience through this paper and how its impacted my life profoundly and has been a wonderful experience so far!

Two Progressional Steps toward Goal

I will be taking many steps to finish my final project but two importantly in my mind are first to do thorough research and collect as many resources as p[ossible to make sure my data pool is large enough to have adequate knowledge and materials to make a clear and concise project. Another step I will take to finish out the final for leadership is to create a organizational structure and outline of events to sequence my final together for better oversight and view to allow for error corrections and re-iterative process of editing for final draft review. There many steps to my process of start to finish for my final proeject but these two stood out as more critical steps to overall achievement and success!

"Berlin Wall"

This was a good clip on the insight of the people who lived through the rise and fall of the Berlin wall. The interviews were sad and really unbelievable and helped to me understand better the conditioning affects of being born with something instead of experiencing something first hand and how this changes perspectives and allowes for change even if undesired with social reinforcement. The people born with the wall just excepted that the wall was a fact of life and not a atrocity of political turmoil. This is inspiring and feel we should all have to see information like this to prevent that from ever happenning again!

"Goal"

This short clip was an eye opener for me with group task performance and outputs, I did not realize the vast gap of communication between memebers and overall goals of larger entities. this is fairly disturbing seeing how our whole society is comprised of a series of groups within different organizations and affiliations that are having this break down. Communicaton clearly needs leaps and bounds to get us all on the same page if ever! good clip and for those who did not get to see it reading this here's a link http://www.stephencovey.com/community/resources/companion_films.php?f=12&s=l
