The For Baby's Sake Trust’s Post

An interesting piece in this podcast from The Economist (in the second half) about new forms of philanthropy. Citing recent examples of philanthropists moving away from arduous monitoring and evaluation, and towards, giving directly with less constraints and reporting requirements. Would love to hear your views and experiences. #philanthropy #giving #innovation https://lnkd.in/gykCqzz4

I'm a pretty normal guy, but I do one weird thing. I listen to podcasts in the shower. 😂 But hear me out - I always try to find something that is going to get me thinking. Some of my best thoughts happen in the shower. But I also am limited by my brain, my creativity, my thoughts. Bringing a podcast in helps me expose myself to other ideas, other ways of thinking, other perspectives I might not have had on my own. Today I was listening to Simon Sinek's podcast 'A bit of Optimism' and he had on Scott Harrison who runs Charity Water. I have actually heard interviews with Scott before, but he shared a story that brought me to tears (though you couldn't tell.. remember, I'm in the shower). I won't spoil it here, but its an incredible story about what great good can come out of great tragedy and it painted this beautiful picture that just struck me as so incredibly true, sad, and beautiful. The whole theme of this episode was redemption - can those of us (re: all of us) who have wasted our time, been foolish, unwise, or selfish truly change? Can we turn it around? Can we even have the guts to look ourselves in the mirror and challenge the things we don't like that stare back at us? I think Scott is an example that we can. It made me turn inward and reflect on my own shortcomings, but also ask questions about where I'm spending my time and what is the type of work I want to do that doesn't end? I'm not sure what I'm going to do with any of these thoughts yet - but I treasured the moment I had listening to this today. Here's the link if you want to listen, its well worth it: https://lnkd.in/gj7xAsVd So, I guess my point is find new perspectives, find stories that challenge you. And maybe listen to a podcast in the shower. You might just love it ;)
