Will you get the right answer only if you ask the right question?

Actually, every once in a while we do get the right answer when we've asked the wrong question. That is a pretty haphazard way to go through life and science though! We are astronomically more likely to get the right answer by asking the right question. If you want to solve problems: ask lots of questions and use your spiritual eyes to name the real problem (see what others have missed, notice patterns, notice symptoms of the problem, ask what the real problem is/listen, ponder, think, meditate, <pray> /identify the real problem, name the real problem and arrange in the form of a question) and then ask that Right Question! When you get your I Wonders this week, try to focus on asking the right Question!

       Skill Focus: Ask the Right Question

We are discussing Phantom Tollbooth next week. The discussion is much more lively, meaningful and personally relevant if you have read the book! Do your best to read it through and have questions and insights written down to bring to class. I thought it was a pretty funny read:-) I can't believe I've never read it before now!

Ok, this is a last minute update from last week, with class again tomorrow.  I was in charge of our Young Women in Excellence program this evening and my focus was on that all week.  But the interesting thing is that while I was thinking of the program and my talk, I kept coming back to Pyramid Project.  I wrote in my commonplace book.  I used my 1828 Webster's Dictionary.  I annotated scriptures.  I love what I've learned in Pyramid and hope you do, too!  Oh, by the way, our YWiE theme was Light.  And I even had a couple I Wonders in that process.

Last week, we talked about assumptions.  Did you pay attention to the assumptions made by people around you this week?  How about in your reading?  Did you think about your own assumptions, whether it was during a conversation, while watching a movie or in writing a paper?

How are your experiments, logbooks and core book studies coming?  Who is ready to share some some of their annotations from your Core Book?

Oh, and isn't The Phantom Tollbooth a fun book?  Remember we're discussing it next week, so be sure to get through it soon.

I sure love Pyramid Project!  Even though I've taught it before, I still learn things from it every week... whether I'm teaching or not.  I hope you feel the same!!

I wonder... a lot of things!

Hello Fabulous Scholars!
Hopefully we primed the pump with our game of 'I Wonder' hot potato, and you are paying attention to and writing down all those I Wonders you are having. Its amazing how many 'I Wonders' are discounted and lost because people are used to ignoring and/or discounting them. Can you imagine the great world we would be living in if good people pursued more of their I Wonders?!
