It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better, The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena…who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat.” |

Do you have what it takes to change the world?
Henry Ford once said, “If you think you can, or you think you can’t, you are right!” Listen Love Lead Companies exist to help you develop the mindset of a leader – and equip you with the resources you need to act on this. The concept of leadership through relationship (Listen Love Lead) is simple and practical, but very difficult. For this reason, it is also very powerful! Everyone has the potential to lead, but not everyone is worth following. How do you become the kind of person or organization that people want to follow? |
The extent to which you fulfill your vision is the extent to which you can inspire others toward it. Stake your claim on the future and decide how tomorrow is going to be. |
Human-Centered Learning by Elyseum Hall
Human-Centered Learning is a theory of education informed by Human-Centered Design - IDEO in which the program is built around the learners instead of around the information they need to master. Though the project is in its early stages it consists of two pieces. The first is an education technology platform that enables worldwide collaborative discovery, discussion, and development of ideas. The second is a center for learning built around the classical liberal arts for the development of the individual - Elyseum Hall. Learn more about the education philosophy driving the development of this integrated learning experience here.

The universities were places for self-reflection, places for the highest education in life. Everyone taught everyone else. All were teachers, all were students. The sages listened more than they talked; and when they talked it was to ask questions that would engage endless generations in profound and perpetual discovery. The universities and the academies were also places where people sat and meditated and absorbed knowledge from the silence. Research was a permanent activity, and all were researchers and appliers of the fruits of research. The purpose was to discover the hidden unifying laws of all things, to deepen the spirit, to make more profound the sensitivities of the individual to the universe, and to become more creative. (Ben Okri, 1995, pp. 66–67) |
Truth IN Seeking
The mark of the educated man is not in his boast that he has built his mountain of facts and stood on the top of it, but in his admission that there may be other peaks in the same range with men on the top of them, and that, though their views of the landscape may be different from his, they are nonetheless legitimate. |

Truth IN Seeking takes a new approach to the widespread disconnect between the ideas of truth and the ability of people to live it out. The millennial generation has grown frustrated with the answers provided by religion, education, and even our employers. Rather than pretending to have the answers, we are ready to accept the fact that truth is not a database of knowledge, but a way of life that effectively engages with the world around us. Visit www.truthinseeking.org to get more information about training sessions for teachers and leaders, access helpful resources and join a community of individuals practicing the art of truth in seeking.
