Alan Weiss’s Monday Morning Memo® – 02/18/19
About 5,000 years ago: According to various sources, about a fifth of the Earth, excluding the poles, had been transformed somehow by humans. This degree of land use would have been sufficient to warm the local climate. Animals that lived among prehistoric peoples included the mammoth, giant ground sloth, cave hyena, smilodon, and dire wolf. The climate was generally warmer than today. Human hunting and farming began having a massive effect on the natural world, with co-habiting species dropping off tremendously.
I mention this because the world’s oldest tree is a bristlecone pine named “Methuselah” in California’s White Mountains, and it’s estimated to be….5,000 years old. Its location is kept secret by the Forest Service for its own protection.
I don’t know about you, but this certainly prevents me from feeling like any “master of the universe.”
Humility is not thinking less of yourself, it’s thinking of yourself less.
—Rick Warren

This is the first reprise of a session I did five years ago. You’ll emerge with a template to create and deliver workshops effortlessly and rapidly for any client or for public sessions.
