1. Wealth is what you don’t see: Wealth is the assets you accumulate that nobody else can see. It’s the cars not purchased, the clothes not bought, and the vacations not taken. #ThePsychologyofMoney #Wealth #Savings $QUACK
2. Compounding is the most powerful force in finance: Time and patience are the most important ingredients of compound interest. Understanding the power of compound interest is essential for building long-term wealth. #CompoundInterest #WealthBuilding $QUACK

There has been a lot of discussion on twitter about who is being and who should be interviewed by media when it comes to #Covid_19 "experts".
It is easy for everyone to be biased, follow on twitter or listen to, interview those who think like us, whom we relate to. Unfortunately that can cause us to focus on single aspect of a complex problem. It can create large dark spots in our vision, and gaps in our understanding.
And then, what happens if the "experts" cognitive model is based on "fixed mindset" as opposed to "always learning mindset." So much of our understanding of #COVID, transmission, complications has changed. #humility = key, to admit we got it wrong & change approach to #pandemic From Ed Yong's Atlantic contributor's presentation at the UB

Agha Hasan Abedi — legendary banker & founding President of #BCCI (Bank of Credit & Commerce International) — the world’s 7th largest privately owned bank.

A bank run by Pakistanis 🇵🇰 & financed by the Ruling Family of Abu Dhabi 🇦🇪 & prominent family offices of Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦.
Founded in 1972, during a meeting of senior bankers in Beirut, #Lebanon 🇱🇧, #BCCI went on to open up branches & launch full-fledged commercial banking operations in 73 countries around the world by 1989. This included opening the first branch of a foreign-owned bank in #China 🇨🇳.
In the mid-1980’s, Agha Hasan Abedi (or Agha Sahib as he was called fondly by colleagues), negotiated the acquisition of a very unique banking operation in the #UnitedStates 🇺🇸. The bank acquired had licenses to operate in 15-16 states in the US. An unprecedented transaction.

On the subject of “Who is entitled to the title of ‘Doctor’?” regarding the WSJ hot mess article, I thought it important to offer a linguistic & historical perspective.
Bottomline, if we adopt the historical (& linguistic lens), PhDs are the the real “doctors”.

A thread 1/
“Doctor” comes from the latin “Docere” which means “To teach”. From the 1300s, It was donned on eminent scholars who have distinguished themselves after many years of learning and research to earn a doctorate so they could teach in Universities. 2/
It was around the 1600s that medical schools started according their graduates the title of “Doctor” after graduation from what is considered an undergraduate program in the hierarchy of university programs. 3/

#humility #Mahabharata @YamunaHarsha (Thought about you while posting this - a WA forward)

While the Battle of Kurushetra was at its peak, Arjuna and Karna were fighting each other.
It was a battle to witness, a flurry of arrows were being exchanged, and even Gods were witnessing this epic battle between the 2 warriors.
Arjuna would shoot his arrows and the impact of these arrows would be so much that Karna’s chariot would go back by 25-30 feet. People who witnessed this were amazed by the skills of Arjuna.

17th JULY: ST ALEXIS OF ROME

~thread~
1. St Alexis (Alexius) is a perfect model of the most generous contempt of the world. He was the only son of a rich senator of Rome in the fifth century. The more he enlarged his views of eternity
#StAlexisOfRome #SaintOfTheDay #Christian Image
2. and raised his thoughts and desires to the bright scene of immortal bliss, the more did he despise all the empty pageantry of all that worldlings call great!

Fearing the distraction of temporal honours he planned to renounce the advantages of his birth. #NotOfThisWorld
3. In disguise he travelled into a distant country, embraced extreme poverty, and resided in a hut adjoining to a church. After some time there he was discovered to be a stranger of distinction. Therefore he returned home, and being received as a poor pilgrim, lived some time

1. Immaculate Virgin, conceived without sin, you directed every movement of your most pure Heart toward God and were always obedient to His Divine Will.

#ImmaculateHeartOfMary #prayer #fiat #Rosary #Bible #ThyKingdomCome #ThyWillBeDone #VirginMary #ImmaculateHeart Image
2. Obtain for me the grace to hate sin with all my heart and to learn from you to live in perfect resignation to the Will of God.
3. Mary, I admire that deep humility which troubled your blessed Heart at the message of the Angel Gabriel when he announced that you had been chosen to be the Mother of the Son of the most high God. You considered yourself only God’s lowly handmaid.

Wow!! One of the most outstanding books I’ve ever read.

Sand Talk: How #IndigenousThinking can save the World

A great recommendation for these days!!

Thanks Tyson Yunkaporta. Your book is a gem to be discovered: #wisdom #values

textpublishing.com.au/books/sand-talk
A few years ago, I wrote a post about the #philosophy of Good Living or Living Well from Indigenous People
academia.edu/6528305/_Good_…

I talked about #biomimicry, learning from Nature with humility, and then we could also learn from the wisdom of indigenous people
I've decided to start a month-long project where I'll tweet a “wise” tip about "Sand Talk" every day during April. 30/30

#WiseBoomerang #1 This will be the 1st one.
It's about #humility the antonymous of #hubris. #Communication #DialogicalEthics #Connectedness

1a/ #Leader dlm situasi krisis harus mulai dengan asumsi bahwa #problem is worse than it appears. Sehingga langkah mengatasinya dan plan A, B, C, D nya kuat.
1b/ Bukan untuk menjadi pesimis dan #negativethinking, tapi realistis dan berhitung dengan cermat, sehingga aksinya jadi cepat dan tepat. Jangan menyepelekan sesuatu ketika krisis datang.

#Humility

#UncleBob dedicates this #5goodminutes to one of my medical school heroes - the late Dr. Orhan Muren. He was a Turkish pulmonologist who won the Golden Apple award from the students so many times that they had to retire him.
2/
He was the first educator who stimulated my love of acid-base disorders.

But the dedication is for one of his pet phrases:

"In clinical medicine, never get cocky." He taught us clinical humility before it was in vogue.

The NY Times recently had a wonderful column on the value of humility - Be Humble, and Proudly, Psychologists Say nyti.ms/32AuoGj

So what is humility? Humility is not false modesty. My favorite basketball coach - Tony Bennett at UVa defines it this way:

1. He lacks compassion.
The Bible says: “As God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, clothe yourselves with #compassion, #kindness, #humility, #meekness, & #patience.” (Colossians 3:12)
2. He appeals to fear and anger- “But I say to you that if you are angry with a brother or sister, you will be liable to judgment; if you insult a brother or sister, you will be liable to the council; if you say ‘You fool,’ you will be liable to the hell of fire.” (Matthew 5: 22)
3. enamored with “greatness” & ego not goodness
“Blessed are meek, they will inherit earth. Blessed are those who hunger & thirst for righteousness, they will be filled. Blessed are merciful, they will receive mercy. Blessed are pure in heart, they will see God” (Matthew 5: 5-8)

I want to put a 🙌 out to #MedTwitter

I may not tweet a lot but I do follow and gain quite a bit so I want to share how it has changed the way I carry myself and provide care.

It’s a thread.

Patient asks the case manager when the doctor is going to see him

I spent 30 minutes updating him earlier that day 🤔

Pre-twitter: ok
Post-twitter: Sir, I’m in charge of your care, tell me a bit more about why you didn’t think I was your doctor.

Overhear the nurses talking about a patient who made a veiled but serious threat to them during the course of care.

Pre-twitter: I’m sorry.
Post-twitter: 😠 that’s not OK. How can I support you?

Good morning!

As I start my last 24 or so hours as your guest poster for the week, I’ve just finished the #Vigils office which triggered something to share about the teaching in the Rule of St Benedict, so here’s another daily #thread...
.
<1>
.
In the #Vigils office, the reading was St. Augustine and it started with the line, “The Beatitudes start with humility...”

#Humility was a big deal to Benedict; and one of the great teaching chapters in the Rule, Chapter 7, is called On Humility.
.
<2>
.
It is by far the longest chapter in the Rule. In it, Benedict sees the way of humility as a ladder and likens it to the ladder Jacob saw (Genesis 28) “...on which Angels appeared to [Jacob] descending and ascending.” (RSB4:6)
.

I Have been thinking as to #WhatIsMaturity ...
I used to think that maturity was about age & physical development. I was so wrong & have since found out that age is only but a number.
Below are 20 definitions of #Maturity I read recently ..
#Maturity is when:
1 We accept other people the way they are and their level of maturity
2 We understand that our ideas are not always the best
3 We learn to let go even if it pains.
4 We are able to drop expectations from a relationship and give for the sake of giving
5 We understand that whatever positive things we do, we do for our own peace
6 We stop proving to the world how RIGHT OR SUPERIOR we are.
7 We stop comparing ourself with others because life is not a competition

ZC then tweeted JD had cornered & forcibly kissed her!

#IBelieve..
#Inspiration comes in all forms and from places we expect the least. And no, this is not a rule but an experience. Only when you open your mind to learn, the best lessons come.
#Humility is not a very prized value in today’s world and yet, when we hear such stories, we have to admit that some of the most valuable lessons of life come from extremely humble people who view work as work – not big or small.
No #work is big and no work is small.
It is the manner in which it is executed that makes it big or small.
