The hardest thing to understand is something outside of your perspective. We’ve all been conditioned to think, feel, and react uniquely. Genetics, family, country of origin, schooling, friends, media intake, places we’ve been, books we’ve read, and many more factors form who we are today. So how do we evolve? How do we grow beyond our current thinking? A little microevolution isn’t so bad sometimes when lousy thinking still reigns.

I once was speaking at a small event in the Heathrow area and had to excuse myself mid-presentation. I stopped talking, thought to myself that I felt like throwing up, held my hand over my mouth, paused as I figured out what was happening inside of me, then said out loud to the audience “I’m going to throw up,” and walked off stage to find the nearest loo.

I wanted to get a review on how I spent the dollars because little judgment sometimes it's so bad. The smartest guy I know when it comes to Facebook Ads is Chad Hugghins.

The most natural thing is to do the same thing forever. Evolving is scary. I get inspired by talking with people in my same field but doing things a bit different. These types of conversations lead to positive microevolution in my ministry.

Technology has always and will always be a tool. Even the extreme haters get this point in practice. Technology is not the means to the end. It’s not the thing that replaces all things.

I was reading this interview from Stratechery with Facebook’s Vice-President Adam Mosseri. He was asked a question about engagement, and I thought the response was interesting.
