Want to learn something?

Think you know something?

Make a prediction. Then review what actually happens. What can you learn?

If you think you know about a sport, make a prediction about the result of the next game.
If you’re interested in politics, predict the top three issues at the next election.
If you want to learn about the housing market, go to an open home and predict the auction price.
If you do the shopping every week, predict next week’s grocery bill.

Predict. Review. Reflect.

Oh, and do it all in writing.

Welcome to my little corner of the internet.

I believe that place matters.

Our connection to whatever little corner of the planet we find ourselves in, or choose to place ourselves on, matters.

I'm relentlessly curious and continually learning.

My interests are scattered across topics including property, strategy, acoustics, psychology, theology, systems theory, quantum physics and leadership. I read, listen, watch, and learn about whatever grabs my attention in the moment.

This is a learning experiment.

I come here to try to make sense of something I’ve come across, by writing about it.

I’m immersing myself in a new language.

I’m learning to speak Te Reo Māori, the language of the indigenous people of Aotearoa New Zealand and one of our official languages. After spending 2020 studying, I’m figuring out how to keep the journey going outside the classroom.

You’re welcome to follow along.
