I put the lime in the coconut … now what?
Posted by Lee-Anne Ragan | Filed under Humor & comedy
If you know the song ‘Put the lime in the coconut’ by Harry Nilsson, then this graphic (by Mike Rilestone) is pretty darn funny. If you don’t know the song, then it will leave you scratching your head. Like perspective. Sometimes illuminating, sometimes confounding, always interesting. ~~TGIF- each Friday I rejig & re-post a blog […]

What’s your take on Stop Life Lenses™? Clean or messy? Blockage or clearing?
Posted by Lee-Anne Ragan | Filed under Diversity & culture
Creative Commons licensed on Flickr by: Rev Dan Catt I love this image. There are at least two ways to interpret it. In no particular order… 1. Being a Stop Life Lens™ messes you up. It causes unnecessary mess by being overly cautious. Stop Life Lenses™ cause blockages, they bring things to a halt, preventing […]

Posted by Lee-Anne Ragan | Filed under Communication, Humor & comedy
My good friend Roman Rollnick sent this (even though he’s in the communications field he’s conspicuously not on the web, hence no hyperlink). I laughed. Then I thought about the effects definitions have on us. How we define things sets the parameters of our thinking. From whose fault it is that those extra pounds continue […]

Posted by Lee-Anne Ragan | Filed under Creativity & innovation, Diversity & culture

Ownership, culture, discovery, holidays – they’re all imbued with perspective, with a particular worldview. ~~TGIF- each Friday I rejig & re-post a blog entry from my www.life-lenses.com blog, which is about enhancing our perspective & worldview.~~
