Randy talks about Artisan Kids. The question is how what you DO, and NOT DO, if you, as a parent, have an Artisan child? Or what DID you DO and NOT DO, if you are an Artisan.
Here’s Mickey
NO, THAT’S NOT MICKEY MOUSE, he would come much later.
When he was fourteen months old, unknown to everyone, he crawled onstage wearing overalls and a little harmonica around his neck. He sneezed and his father, Joe Sr., grabbed him up, introducing him to the audience as Sonny Yule. He felt the spotlight on him and described it as his mother’s womb. From that moment on, the stage was his home.
He was a natural Performer, from the beginning.

The Spark:
But what if your mother, or father, (and society) are NOT conducive to your natural talents? Oh! What Lucky Men They WAS!
NECESSITY IS THE MOTHER INVENTION.

PASSION REQUIRES TEMPERAMENT AND CIRCUMSTANCE
Because you know it is about Life Itself: That Relational Thing.
It Stands to Reason
Happy Birthday Sharon. She has been a libertarian activist for 50 years, and she hopes that she will have a few more years to fight for liberty. She is not slowing down if she can help it. She is finishing the libertarian feminist anthology, hoping to start a libertarian women’s magazine with Victoria Varga sometime this year, work on her book about American women resisters in the 19th century and other ideas in the offing. No rocking chair for her! Self and Herd-appointed Experts watch out.
Just the Way You Are
Fred Rogers birthday.
Children’s Temperament Traits
Dr Randy Cima used Dr. Keirsey’s Temperaments and the collected techniques for corrective intervention to help troubled and troubledsome kids.
Yorick’s Answer
Surely You Infinitely Jest.
Alas, poor Yorick! I knew him,
Horatio. A fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy.
— Act V, Scene 1 (Hamlet, with Horatio)
The map is not the territory, but neither is a random (gaussian noise) sample, but they are both starts. They are better than nothing{the trivial group} or doG. And when they are combined intelligently, they are an unbeatable combination.
Keirsey’s law revised.
“You can’t beat first order statistics”— the herd(strong correlation),
— unless you know the first order correspondences too,
and you don’t get in the way.
Yorick’s Answer
… was the right answer for me at the time. But in a crazy and 40 years from recall, the answer was luckily wrongly incomplete.
No, it wasn’t Yorick who answered. That’s not right, he is dead? No, Yorick isn’t dead, he is a fictional CHARACTER. Can fictional characters, die? Or when do they die?
There is no correlation there? What is the correspondence?
A rose is a rose is a rose is a rose, by any other name.

Without Malice
He would use the word “love” of his players.
But, he was very gruff and tough. Beyond tough. A Stone-cold Leader. One of the 7 blocks of granite.
He demanded the best of each individual. He would do whatever it took to get his team to win.
The Commanding Leader
“I firmly believe that any man’s finest hour, the greatest fulfillment of all that he holds dear, is the moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle-victorious.”
Unreasonable
But not irrational
— not by long shot.
“The reasonable man adapts himself to the conditions that surround him… The unreasonable man adapts surrounding conditions to himself… All progress depends on the unreasonable man.” –George Bernard Shaw
He is unreasonable in his consistent integrity of his ideals.
Some say, because of that, he is unsafe at any speed of change.
He has always been Idealistic. THAT’S THE NATURE OF TEMPERAMENT.
He won’t change, he can’t change. He doesn’t compromise.
And he is unreasonable about that. Continue reading Unreasonable
