Garr Reynold of Presentation Zen talks about paying attention to the
stories you see in everyday life in order to improve the quality of your own
storytelling. You can learn about presentation-giving from jazz, road signs, a
good movie or anything that captures your attention in a powerful way and
conveys a message that moves you. Everything is a device for learning. The
Karate Kid washed car windows to learn to defend himself. My favourite tool at
the moment for learning about learning is the Rubik’s cube. Learn the form.
Learn the transition. Then leave the form, and flow. The same is true of
learning about business or money making. It all boils down to problem solving.
Not everything is a problem, but we can’t focus on those things until we are released
from the obsessive control of our time and space by problem solving. In “The
Art of Learning”, Josh Waitzkin talks of “Numbers to leave numbers, Form to
leave form”. That is how I see Capital. Money is like form & numbers as a
counting device. Something that can either control us, or if we can master it,
can be released.
