“I cannot teach anybody anything. I can only make them think”Socrates 469-399 BC. Father of western philosophy.Greek philosophos means ‘lover of wisdom’,, from philein ‘to love’ + sophos ‘wise’.

I was researching Socratic method - process of gradual questioning a major contribution to academia. Challenging hypothesis and whcih leads to question one's belief. Examination of inner motivation and values. This lead me  to read an article on top law schools from USA and "Law professors teaching introductory law classes often use a pedagogical technique known as the Socratic method, which involves cold-calling on students and interrogating them about the facts and decisions in various court cases."

As promised in the show here is the link to the Intel article: https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/program/education/us/en/documents/project-design/strategies/dep-question-socratic.pdf

Digital Dreamers all Socrates wanted was to uproot ignorance.So try implementing his methods at work, conversations with friends and family and see how the quality of conversation changes.

Today's guest is Plamena Todorova, originally from Bulgaria. 

Since she was little she had a passion to discover the world.  At the age of 20 this brave soul moved to the USA and lived there for 2 years- starting from Las Vegas and then later moving to New York- my dream was to live there.

Following that her passion she continued her journey and moved to UAE -Dubai and Abu Dhabi, where she entered the aviation industry and was flying as a cabin crew for one of the best airlines, Etihad airways.

After 3 years of flying she took the decision to come back to her home country and work an office job from 9 to 5  in the  corporate world. Not long passed when she realised that this is not her dream job and destiny.

This is where the journey of creating her own brand starts. Her mission is to show elegance and femininity in women through the jewellery but also expose their controversial side of strength and optimism by running a campaign called Babe of the hour. The aim of the campaign is to pass people's stories and help others in need through the jewellery collections. That's what makes this brand unique because it wears a soul.

Let's provoke our thoughts if our social norms impacts the way we behave and do we want to change any of it if those behaviours are not serving us anymore !

Recently I was attending a group coaching session and during the session we discussed the impact of social narrative in our actions. Personally I think social narrative plays a big role in way we act. There are areas of my life I have to consciously work on  my mindset to change my way of actions which were getting influenced of my social scripts while growing up.

Today we are talking about the wisdom and philosophy of this timeless book by Sun Tzu.A book written 2500 years ago still relevant.

In this episode I am mentioning the principles which inspired me and helped me in my life beyond management and business .

One of the principle we discussed on the show is following:

Appreciate, enjoy and nurture peace. “It is easy to love your friend, but sometimes the hardest lesson to learn is to love your enemy” . Balance and inner peace is crucial. There are five dangerous faults which may affect a general: according to Sun Tzu, in this case applies to our modern life we live ion (1) Recklessness, which leads to destruction; (2) cowardice, which leads to capture; (3) a hasty temper, which can be provoked by insults; (4) a delicacy of honor which is sensitive to shame; (5) over-solicitude for his men, which exposes him to worry and trouble.”

For the rest listen to the show and revel in the wisdom of Sun Tzu!
