Empathy Vs. Sympathy – An RSA Short by Dr. Brené Brown
August 20, 2015 in Social Science | Tags: Empathy, RSA, Sympathy | by The Arbourist | 5 comments
I’m in complete agreement with this animated short. I can see from my own personal experiences the vastly different feelings I get between someone sympathizing with me versus someone who empathizes with me.
I can see why empathy is less common – it is waaaaaay harder to achieve because being empathetic requires time, energy and authentic connection with the person you are communicating with.

Barbara Ehrenreich – Smile or Die with RSA enhancement.
August 27, 2010 in Education | Tags: Barbara Ehrenreich, Market Fundamentalism, RSA, Smile or Die, The Power of Positive Thinking | by The Arbourist | Comments closed
Two RSA vids in the same week? Sue me, I’m prepping to go back to school and the grind associated with not being on summer holidays. :)
Ms.Ehrenreich gives a short but concise talk about the ills of Positive Thinking. I particularly like near the end in which she brings the idea that positive thinking is really just a corollary of market fundamentalism and the myths established around that particularly mortiferous ideal.

I really enjoy what the RSA does. Taking good ideas and making them better with illustrations and cognitive maps.
