The Quests

The Quest for Knowledge (path to high performance)

As the pace of our lives quickens and the work environment becomes more dynamic, uncertain and complex, our greatest strength is our knowledge, our capacity to understand and take effective action. This Quest focuses on knowledge: what it is, what it means to each of us, and how to find, create, share and apply it. We can all improve the way we learn, how we manage our own knowledge and use it to make better choices and decisions in our personal and professional lives. Managing and leveraging our own knowledge to help ourselves, others and our organizations may be he greatest challenge we face.

The Quest for Consciousness (window to the world)

This journey is an inquiry into the nature and meaning of consciousness and its impact on our lives. consciousness is essentially the window through which we understand and relate to the external world. Thus consciousness, the brain, the mind, the unconscious, intuition and feelings are what we have to work with in sensing, interpreting and acting on the world. Other subjects discussed include the mind/body problem, maintaining a healthy brain/mind, altered states of Consciousness, lucid dreaming, knowing, hemispheric synchronization and heart-math.

The Quest for Meaning (roots of wisdom)

The deepest questions we can ask usually relate to the purpose and meaning of things. Whether we are contemplating the meaning of the Universe, the purpose of Life, the meaning of our own lives or the significance of some event to us or someone we love, we are continuously trying to understand our world and our place in it. While there are few, if any, definitive answers to questions of meaning, many people have thought through the possibilities and there is much to be learned from them. Gaining an awareness of what science, philosophy, religion and spiritualism say about the meaning of things can help each of us seek and understand and appreciate our own place in the Universe.
