# 1: Facts are important We need prudence, science and facts, say the United Nations . The WHO is telling countries to test.   # 2: Transparency is useful to share information fast Transparency is job number 1 for leaders in a crisis .

Over the past weeks I have been learning from many kind people about how to eat with the right hand. Why? Because in Chennai, where I will be from January to March 2020, many people eat with the right hand.  In the learning process, I picked up a few useful tricks: Try with the tip of your fingers to form, what you eat, into a little ball.

Avoid using your left hand to eat. Why? Because the left hand is used primarily when you go to the toilet. Use your left hand to drink.

After the webinar, I was still so excited about what happened that I decided to update research I did about  Trust  some time ago.

Als ich mit der Übung arbeitete, stellte ich relativ schnell fest, dass Lernen und Innovation für mich zentrale Bereiche sind und sich auch überschneiden. Was meine ich damit? Beispielsweise ist es mir in den Sinn gekommen, dass Inspiration   suchen, was viel mit Lernen zu tun hat, auch sehr wichtig ist um auf neue Ideen zu kommen. Und wenn ich Ideen ausprobiere / teste, finde ich durch Feedback von Maschinen und Menschen heraus, was für Andere wichtig ist, d.h. was Sinn macht und Wert bringt. Gewusst habe ich, dass Musik auch für mich wichtig ist. Es passiert etwas Gutes in meinem Kopf und in meinem Herz, wenn ich z.B. singe. Ich werde fröhlich. Ich merke, dass Energie in mein Körper kommt. Und spann...
