The History Of The Chef Uniform

"Do not let him steal ideas: Give them, man! "


L to life is not linear and talent, either: you have to reinvent themselves every day! I was born in a working class: a mentor could see something in me . To find your talent should make a journey into himself and another to the outside. not let him steal ideas: Give them, man!.

Sir Ken Robinson, forming innovative
interview on "The Against "" La Vanguardia " 23.12.2010
Most people do not enjoy your job ...
... If he is lucky to have one.
Or comply with any misfortune. Fortunately, I also know people who enjoy what they do.
How did they do?
all have in common that they found his element: the place of talking to him which match your skills with your hobbies, what you do with what you like.
talentudos Not everyone is born ...
is that we all have talent if we find out. Some are lucky and find the children with ease and support from their environment and others should strive to find it: sometimes against his family and friends.
And there are professions that is routine.
No routine tasks, there is only routine ways of doing a task. Think of cooking, for example, boredom may be a required or a sublime creation .
If we all had different talents, intelligence could not be measured.
is that you can not measure: the tests were an invention supremacist. In fact, talent is as personal as your fingerprint and there are many ways to be smart as people. This is not how smart you are, but how you are smart.
the end, the talent does not pay the bills.
If you dislike something, you end up doing so badly in the end you can neither pay the bills. And that happens in the global economy: the tasks you do routinely just going to the country make for less. Only he who keeps the value innovation.
So you see bad education?
to I said that education has been reformed, but has not been transformed. And do not ask that is required less in school, but to school: we must concentrate on identifying and enhancing the unique talents of each. Our school still produces uniform, passivity and conformity.
is that each student there ...
But all have potential, because being creative is not a gift that have chosen few, is what makes us human. If you are a person, you are creative. And you learn to be more creative as you learn to read. It is an innate power that we all develop.
How is creativity?
How many ways are there?
Hearing, sight, smell, touch, taste ...
And the sense of balance, the kinesthetic or proprioceptive (perception of self and their relationship with the space) ... And it is also the termoceptivo ... But do you know why you thought only the five senses?
¿...?
For convenience, it is the enemy of creativity. When something seems obvious to us, we make no effort to understand. So you have me repeat the five senses and thus has lost the ability to rethink and find others.
What if I discover my supposed talent?
For starters, do not put limits, and less over time. Creativity, like life, is not linear. You can be a boy or a nonagenarian creatively creatively old girl. And every day the brain is different.
Yes, but how do I find out?
I am researching now. This is to make two trips: one to the inside of yourself and other outward to project your talent. And they are not always consecutive trips, can be simultaneous.
Give me more clues.
Know. And if you want to meet someone, what does? Spend time alone with him, spend more time getting to know.
And when I know?
Eventually you will enjoy your own company. Then find and may take advantage of his own tribe creative.
my tribe Who is creative?
The people you can be yourself: literary generations, research teams, rock bands or colleagues who invent things, are those who accept and recognize each talent and make it grow together.
Can it be just a friend?
was my case: a teacher saw talent in a kid poliomelítico neighborhood and went for it. Your mentor and your tribe are those who can see it in your seed decisions of your successes.
How do I exercise?
Creativity is intelligence applied to specific task and shared with complicity: lone genius is an oxymoron.
And the effort, sweat, tears ...?
effort, of course, the same as a child to win a race at school, suffers, but also sports. The fun includes sweat, but no risk, innovation and experience if you do not enjoy doing it.
Well give me some tricks ...
invent new games with the usual toys, play doctors with Indian feathers, restate the obvious until it ceases to be ... Do not accept anything in advance or assume anything. And share it all.
What if I steal ideas colleagues?
Give your ideas and see how by magic there are other better utilizing the space left by which he gave.
What if they laugh at my ideas?
Laugh with them! Create is not something that happens to you, but what you do when something happens.
How do I know I have?
Because being creative does not remove power: the da. The hours seem like minutes, the ideas flow and you with them. You're out of the world and at the same time within it.

I'm not working!
Paro, no! Job, either! Work is a hateful word and its origin (tripalium: the sticks where slaves were tied to flog). Marx showed that stupid and inhuman slavery did not fail, but ineffective. Another Marx, Groucho, revealed to the slaves of the mental routine. And Sir Ken Robinson today helps us discover our talents and perform at liberty "to work, but also with pleasure how far be innovative ... And prosperous. I hope this second installment of the interview * Sir Ken requested "by a handful of fellow readers" will also serve as Christmas cards here who does not work but enjoying every day interviewing for you.

What's Under My Bathtub?

William Rodriguez, sweeper to American hero 11-S

"I have 49 years. I was born in Puerto Rico and live in New Jersey. I married a reporter and I have two children, all from 11-S. I am a lecturer and chair the Association of Hispanic Victims Terrorism. I went from agnostic to a believer when I pulled from the rubble. "


Interview" The Counter " of" La Vanguardia " 12/13/2010


Does your life before the 11-S? I left
Puerto Rico in search of an opportunity in the U.S. as an illusionist, but when I realized I had too many magicians and just
sweeper in the Twin Towers.

were twenty years.
The first ten cleaned the office of Governor Mario Cuomo.

Were you happy?
I loved the dance and women, helping others is not me going through my head. Was responsible for cleaning stairs throughout the North Tower (110 floors). That morning, Sept. 11, arrived half an hour late and that saved me because I was having breakfast in the cafeteria, upstairs, with my friends.

Life is arbitrary.
was in the basement, a ground explosion lifted us, the roof caved in and started to get wet. I saw a man screaming come with outstretched hands that hung the bloody thing:
skin was torn from the armpits to the toes.

Save details, please.
Nobody wanted to touch for fear of AIDS, wrapped in towels. Pam!, another explosion. In the office had fourteen people hysterical.

took the lead.
Yes, I drove out of the building and then I looked up and saw the hole, fire and smoke. "My friends at the restaurant!" I cried, I took a police radio and went into the South Tower, which was the office of emergency.

Empty? Yes
started taking people: a girl who would not leave for fear of being fired; two men trapped in an elevator, but the 103 lifts were many more: his screams still wake me up.

got out, what came back?
several times. I was one of five master keys of the building, the rest of the experts had to evacuate the building, but it was the first run.

You opened the emergency exits.
Yes, for firefighters to evacuate people, very badly injured, filled with crystals; communications did not work, only two frequencies for all firefighters, so many died, never received the order to leave the building.

followed up.
33 On the floor I found a woman paralyzed that I could save, I came: at 39 I met a paraplegic and a policeman asked me to take it out.

Why order out?
When you get out, the South Tower had already fallen, there was dust everywhere. "Do not look back and run!" She screamed the police.

And he looked, of course.
Yes, and I saw the mountain of people who jumped from the windows, mass of flesh and shreds of cloth. I recognized the lady of the floor 33 split in half and began to mourn. The building was shaking, I dove under a fire truck just before it collapsed and was stranded for four hours.

William shows the master key that used
to save from death to many people
was the last man out alive.
I rescued unharmed. Just after the truck tire exploded. Then I found a microphone in his face. My story went around the world, week in central assistance to victims, Hispanics asked me to translate it. So many that I decided to organize them, and thus created the first group of survivors of 11-S. What I learned cleaning up the governor's office was very helpful.
Why did it?
was my answer to the question of why I survived and not them, all my friends. I was the image of the Red Cross ads to raise money for the 2,274 immigrants who were not counted, you know, waiters, cleaners, cooks.

What did you receive?
Nothing, and I spent all my savings going to Washington to fight for the victims because that was what kept me out of trouble. So just press conferences, I took off my tie and went to live under a bridge.

A national hero under a bridge?
Until someone called the BBC and set up the scandal. Since then, I created my own organization. The conference is money for the victims, but 20% that I will to live.

What did you learn?
That face of difficulties you keep your vision of what is right, that human compassion is more lasting than violence, to help other heals you. If I had been locked in my pain, now be receiving psychological help.

What do you say to young people?
That motivation, willingness and enthusiasm have made a sweeper change the lives of many people, why can not they do well prepared!

He was offered a council .
Yes, but I wanted to be an activist. He had seen the stew of crap that was cooked in the governor's office.

What has been the great lesson?
Be aware that living on borrowed time. If I am just at peace, I did the right thing and I'm ready for whatever comes, nothing surprises me.

Whence came so much empathy?
of desperation. He who washed dishes like the manager died, but a family gave three million dollars in compensation to the family of a dishwasher, $ 100,000. It was not fair.




Living to Tell
Before the building fall on him, personally saved fifteen people and worked with firefighters to evacuate hundreds trapped in the Twin Towers. He got some of the funds of 11-S out to the Latino community and raised more than $ 120 million for immigrant victims, poor, uninsured or unemployed, although he, national hero, was living under a bridge. Hollywood offered him a film of his life (¿... A white guy who had pulled out of the street, but selling my soul.) He has narrated his story in the Second Congress of Youth 'What really matters', organized by Solidarity Projects also in Barcelona.

If you want to hear and see Guillermo Rodriguez to tell their own experiences in the mismo11 S and its road then as an advocate for Hispanic victims, I invite you to watch this video:
