Collaboration or Competition?

I am facilitating an improv class that I call “The Undiscovered Genius.” I’m thinking about one of the fundamentals behind improvisation – cooperation and collaboration.

Upon awakening this morning, I heard Dr. Joe Dispenza and his famous quote, “Gratitude is the ultimate state of receivership.” He was celebrating what he called the “Seven Days of Gratitude,” as the beginning of the Holiday Season. My first reaction was what a wonderful idea: seven days to focus on gratitude as a state […]
