Fifth Life

https://www.pinterest.com/cagornik/fifth-life/

I have never pinned or created a board on Pinterest. All pointers are welcome.

I wanted to share this board to the eme6414 summer 2021 board, but I am unsure if I was successful.

This is my fifth life. Feel free to guess the first four.

    I am able to see it no problem! I like the idea of organizing by 'lives.' I am going to guess that traveling in your fifth life, what beautiful and inspirational photos you have collected in your vision board! Looking at your board was just what I needed tonight! Our imagination and mind are beautiful things to be able to hope, dream, imagine and envision. What will be your next dream vacation destination post-pandemic? (Mine is Greece, may not happen for a while, but I am already picturing my next vision board!)

    My firs venture out with friends was to Montgomery AL. We went to the Freedom Museum and the National Memorial for Peace and Justice. My second trip will be to see my middle son who haven't seen since March 2020. He lives in NoCal. I have a cottage on Oyster Bay and plan to walk the beaches, hike the redwood forests, and do some trail rides. My graduation gift will be a trip to Slovenia to do the same. Both my grandparents are from there and I want to visit their communities. Gornik, my last name, means mountaineer in Slovenian.

    Welcome to the addicting world of Pinterest! Your board looks great. You seem to really love outdoorsy activities and traveling. I always find creating vision boards to be energizing and therapeutic. I'm glad you're excited for your next one

    I've had pinterest for years, and honestly I don't think I ever quite figured out how to use it properly...I usually pin recipes and funny memes, which pretty much works for me.

    I will say that I happened to click the item you pinned about top 12 european museums to visit -- Museums are my happy place, and I was sad to discover I have not been to ANY of the ones listed yet. Let's go!

How this class has already changed my world.

Unlike a lot of you, I have experienced living in a world without the internet, the PC era, Web 1.0, Web 2.0, Web 2.5. and Web 3.0; looking forward to 4.0. Social networking occurred in person, a social networking site was the employee lounge, cafeteria, or the bar/restaurant around the corner, for some, the golf course. Your community was your neighborhood, your classmates, your workmates, your family. Opening a business in 1985, I knew that technology would save me time and money, provide better customer service, and allow me to expand. I embraced email to communicate with my clients, Lotus for accounting, WordPerfect for newsletters. If I remember correctly, I had a website within a couple of years. It had drop down menus that you could get information about the business, but you had to pick up a phone to have a conversation; Yelp did not exist. Networking before the internet involved phone calls, snail mail, and in person conversations. You had 3 choices. There are so many resource

Great start, bump in the road, boulder in the road, pebble in the rearview mirror

I was (still am) so excited to be back in the learning environment, then a week in I cracked a tooth in half, to the root, eating almonds (one of my favorite nuts), and it felt like someone had shot me in the face (or I believe that's what it feels like) or that I got kicked by a horse in the cheek (long story there). I don't do meds, but immediately found myself on antibiotics and opioids until they could schedule me in for an extraction (with complications). The antibiotics immediately changed how I felt, but the opioids did the real number on my psychic. Now I was a Dead Head back in the days, but have been clean for over 40 years, downright borderline vegan; I'm so careful what I put in my body.  How many of you can identify with this scenario?  (Well, maybe not the Dead Head part . . .)   Amid all this, my youngest and his partner visited to "help out" and I had to immediately return to working in the office, in person, full time beginning this past Monda

Yes, Multitasking is Changing Our Brains

Image
  Most of us are in this class to learn how to change brains through learning. In the process we are changing our brains, yes? What pulled me in was the by-line in 10 Things You Can Do to Literally Change Your Brain . I’ve never been a big fan of being stuck with something so this intrigued me. The usual suspects appeared – exercise, sleep, meditate, read, listen to music, and shinrin-yoku can make positive changes to your brain. I’m on the fence about drinking coffee, but sugar and multitasking didn’t come as a surprise. The tenth influence is “believing you can change your brain,” which had a TedTalk (my favorite), and a picture of a buton, receptor, and synapses (also one of my favorite images from a physiology of behavior class in undergrad). The speaker talked about grading students not as failures, but as “not yet” and embracing the potential for growth and improvement. This resonated with my blog Go Forth and Bury Dead Ideas about Learning, as one of the suggested ideas to bury
