So, how are we to resolve the mental tug-of-war that can come up around the topic of making mistakes?
For example, there can appear to be a clear conflict between: (1) the desire to completely avoid making potentially detrimental mistakes, while also (2) hearing that if we’re not making mistakes then we’re not learning and thus less likely to achieve the same level of success than if we did.
Just wanted to share this Non-Profit’s inspiring mission:
WorldChanging.com works from a simple premise: that the tools, models and ideas for building a better future lie all around us. That plenty of people are working on tools for change, but the fields in which they work remain unconnected. That the motive, means and opportunity for profound positive change are already present. That another world is not just possible, it’s here. We only need to put the pieces together.

| Share lists online without the need for setting up complicated databases by using Blist:

Are there any other data visualization or information organization tools that you know of that I could add to this list?
