New Year's Resolution

As we start a NEW YEAR, one cannot help but to reflect on the years past. For 2012, instead of proposing a short-term resolution, let's CHART A PATH and commit fully to leading an EPIC ADVENTURE! Every journey start with preparation, a little research and selecting an ultimate destination. Let's not waste our precious time we have been given in continued short-term failures and redundancy. 2012 is the TIME TO FORGE YOUR OWN PATH and CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE! For the Mayans might have missed the exact date, but the consequences of their prediction will ultimately ring true for some sooner than others.  Are you going to choose to IMITATE the past or INNOVATE for the betterment of your future?

Question 1: a) Who is your favorite EXPLORER, b) why have you chosen this individual, and c) where do you want to GO?

INFLUENCERS: HOW TRENDS & CREATIVITY BECOME CONTAGIOUS

INFLUENCERS TRAILER from R+I creative on Vimeo.

 Loris Malaguzzi developed the Reggio Emilia philosophy in Italian classrooms of the 1960's.

Children’s own timing and rhythms demand enormous respect. Children need the support of adults in order to combat the accelerating pressures and haste to make them grow up, which is not only a treacherous sign of the subversion of biological, psychological, and cultural relationships that is currently in vogue, but also a sign of deep insecurity and a loss of perspective.
