Go to any drug store and somewhere you will see the initials Rx. You probably assume it has to do with medicine or prescriptions or something. But why Rx? What do those letters stand for. This episode begins with an explanation. https://www.todayifoundout.com/index.php/2014/06/rx-mean-come/ You are not the person you used to be. And you are not the person you will one day become. That’s the message from Paul Bloom, psychology professor at the University of Toronto and the Brooks and Suzanne Ragen Professor Emeritus of Psychology at Yale. Listen as he reveals what is likely the happiest years of your life, why you are different from everyone else and other fascinating insight into how your mind works to make you who you are. Paul is author of the book Psych: The Story of the Human Mind (https://amzn.to/3k524d5). The future is uncertain. And we tend not to like uncertainty. Yes, the future may be full of opportunity but it can also be full of danger and disappointment. So, let’s take a fresh look at uncertainty with Nathan Furr. Nathan is a professor and author of several books on innovation with his latest book titled The Upside of Uncertainty (https://amzn.to/3SbJBZ6). Listen as he explains how to face the unknown in a different way that minimizes the risk and amplifies opportunity.  Did you know there are very specific differences between a road a street an avenue and a boulevard?
