Week 4 The Art of Possibilities Blog Post



The Art of Possibility was very interesting this week.  The chapters 9-12 were very enlightening.  They discussed concepts that would help you in your profession as well as everyday life and its decisions.  Chapter 9:  Lighting the Spark, this can actually be done in a negative way or positive way.  It put me in back into the classroom.  Teachers can light the spark by negatively impacting the students to gain achievement, which doesn’t work or positively impacting the students to gain achievement, which works.  Students tend to react better for teachers who positively affect their lives.  Chapter 10:  Being the Board, discusses how one needs to not analyze life but understand and have faith about the things that are happening in their life or around their life and make the necessary changes or adjustment to adapt to the situation or solution.  Chapter 11: Frameworks for Possibilities, this discusses how visions come to realty.  If you state your visions and they are broad enough then it opens doors for other opportunities or possibilities to arrive and leads to helping us find our way.  Chapter 12:  Telling the We Story, discusses how even though we have the understanding or belief that we are independent and need no one is far from the truth or realty.  We have to understand that in order to get to the next level or the best place, we need to accept our dependence on others and compromise for the good of all.
