This is a true bummer. It was also the primary reason I chose Medium as my article platform of choice. Dang. They have to bring it back or give us something new right?
The Currency Of A Good Idea
As you’re looking at my drawing above I want you to think about the theme song from Doogie Howser, just cause I think it has a good vibe, and you know, he was kind of the blog pioneer when you think about it.

/being right vs. being clear_
Have you ever been in a conversation or a debate with someone and had the urge to say “Well, you just need to be right all the time!” Or maybe that’s been said to you? I’m going to posit that it isn’t that anyone needs to be right so much as they need to know they are being clear. That is they need to feel like they are being understood.

/ikigai_
“Ikigai is a Japanese concept that means ‘a reason for being’. The word refers to having a direction or purpose in life, that which makes one’s life worthwhile, and towards which an individual takes spontaneous and willing actions giving them satisfaction and a sense of meaning to life.”

/cultural diffusion_
In the 10th grade, our world history teacher, Mr. Kaempfer (who was recently made famous by playing a game of wiffle ball with fellow former student Jimmy Kimmel. What?!?🤩), put the same question on every single test we ever had and the answer was a definition we had memorized that we had to get right verbatim or we got it marked wrong. The question was, “What is cultural diffusion?” I’m not 100% sure I still have the right answer. It has been 20 years, but it went something like this: The spreading of cultural traits or characteristics from one group of people or civilization to another.
