Teaching is not cutting down forests but irrigating deserts.
33 - Teaching Is Not Cutting Down Forests But Irrigating Deserts.
Welcome to Crux Beta Topout: a show where every week, Phill and I talk about our biggest challenges and mistakes, the lessons we’re learning from them, and then we bet on being better.
This week, Phill and I talk about scheduling deep work, how we struggle with advice, and why “and” is one of the more useful conjunctions.
QUOTES:
“The task of the modern educator is not to cut down jungles, but to irrigate deserts.” - C.S. Lewis
“‘Loss,’ Rosanne Cash wrote, ‘is the great unifier, the terrible club to which we all eventually belong.’ The truth is, we are already in that club. We were inducted at birth. We are all facing terminal diagnoses. We are all losing loved ones and family members. Everyone is going through something, just like we are--and always will be. We should let that connect us, we should allow that to bring us together.” - The Daily Stoic

If you or someone you know would be interested in being vulnerable for this podcast, I’d love to talk about it. I’m interested in your story of confronting doubt, uncertainty, and the mystery and mess of being human. If you want to reach me or just send me a good meme, you can email me at [email protected].
