She included a cool graphic (adapted from a creation by Hugh MacLeod, see below) that gave a keen picture of the difference between knowledge and experience. (Cooper inserted knowledge in place of MacLeod’s information and experience in place of knowledge, in her version.)
By Hugh MacLeon(Belle Beth Cooper’s adaptation of original work by Hugh MacLeod’s.)
COOPER’S SUMMARY:
• Experience works like rods–connecting the dots that are the bits of knowledge we gain. Don’t you love it, too?
That means, people who are good at connecting (knowledge bits) dots are creative types.
Creativity, then, is not the stuff of genius, it’s the stuff of connection.
It got me to thinking and using my creativity, thus defined as “connecting dots”.

Skills are knobby tires for the wheel. Traction, baby!

I had a viral post last week and that was fun! Check it out.
I don’t watch my stats much. It gives me a brain bug. But a few times per week, sometimes, I take a peek and it was cool to see the huge spike upward. Stats used to get me on a roller coaster of moodiness. No more.
A special thank you to Ray Hollenbach and David Fitch who shoved the Myth of Ordinary Time post lovingly into the Twitterverse and also to everyone else who liked it on Facebook and read it and shared it. Was that you? Thank you!

I made a short video to show you the cool “Dog in the Gap” postcards I just got. Thanks for coming along with us (me and Doug Jackson) as we get ready to roll out this project! (just 4 days to go!!!)
