reblog: analogies, metaphors and your problem

Seth’s Blog: Analogies, metaphors and your problem:

“Your problem, whatever it might be, probably has a solution somewhere in the world. And your organization is probably stuck because they don’t know what to do, and more important, don’t have the guts to do it.”

Another zinger from Seth Godin. A lot of what I blog about involves taking principles from one area and applying them to another. A lot of the time my struggles in medicine can be applied to your struggles in your course or work.

Christian perspective: taking what you read in your daily devotion, and understanding it as a message from God that hits home in your circumstances. There’s a Christian belief that all Scripture is God-breathed, and totally applicable to your circumstances.

It’s also important to realise that God’s word is about God, to us. It’s not about our failure, it’s about His redemption.
