Everyone can be creative,

metaphor this and simile that
Physical things,
make the intangible, tangible
Disciplines v capacities,
inspire me, please

23. Fluid Intelligence
Generalists,
not specialists
Curious minds,
are easily distracted by shiny objects.
Problems solvers,
passion has a dark side to manage.
Breaking the rules,
like criminals with a “get out of jail free” card.
Young minds,
uncluttered and curious at any real age.

37. Handling Ambiguity
When was the last time someone you know used the word innovation?
Wednesday, January 2, 2013
38. Handling Ambiguity
Picture this,
what did you mean by that word?
Be uncomfortable,
discard the security blanket.
Boundaries are good,
unless you stay within them?
Clarity in time,
doesn’t mean clarity now but certainly soon.
It means something,
as there are opportunities to create clarity.

Did you see it or observe it?
Wednesday, January 2, 2013
46. Discerning Patterns
What’s here, easy;
seeing what’s missing is the trick.
Intuition intelligence
High IQs may not always apply.
Four eyeballs or,
never less than two intuitive observers.
Out of context,
and you are out of oxygen.

50. Contrarianism
Are you a virus or just an occasion cold?
Wednesday, January 2, 2013
51. Contrarianism
Saying it, okay;
put it into behaviors and now you’re fired.
Be a champion,
for something worth championing.
Do you just believe,
or is it something else?
Caring for your words,
support them visually and use them deliberately
