Author and activist Isabel Allende discusses women, creativity, the definition of feminism -- and, of course, passion -- in this TED talk. She laments the terrible exploitation of women which still goes on throughout the world and explains how empowering women always benefits the whole of society, including economically. She calls for us all to reject patriarchy and embrace feminine energy so that we can look forward to a loving and peaceful future.
instead of sulking, clinging to
my resentment and playing the
role of victim, I am challenged to
strengthen my soul through forgiveness.
By forgiving the person who hurt me,
I strengthen my soul. . . . each time
we are called upon to forgive, we
nourish our souls and learn more about
who we are and what we have to
share in this world. This is also an
example of unconditional love.
by Daniel Pink
According to Pink (A Whole New Mind), everything we think we know about what motivates us is wrong. He pits the latest scientific discoveries about the mind against the outmoded wisdom that claims people can only be motivated by the hope of gain and the fear of loss. Pink cites a dizzying number of studies revealing that carrot and stick can actually significantly reduce the ability of workers to produce creative solutions to problems. What motivates us once our basic survival needs are met is the ability to grow and develop, to realize our fullest potential. Case studies of Google's 20 percent time (in which employees work on projects of their choosing one full day each week) and Best Buy's Results Only Work Environment (in which employees can work whenever and however they choose—as long as they meet specific goals) demonstrate growing endorsement for this approach. A series of appendixes include further reading and tips on applying this method to businesses, fitness and child-rearing. Drawing on research in psychology, economics and sociology, Pink's analysis—and new model—of motivation offers tremendous insight into our deepest nature.
