This time of year reminds all of us how grateful we are for Willis Carrier - the inventor of modern air conditioning. As Carrier was waiting on a foggy train platform in 1902, he realized that he could dry air by passing it through water to create fog – once you control the specific amount of moisture in air, you control the humidity level and its functionality inside a building or cooler box. On an educational point, as a child, Willis Carrier had trouble with fractions so his mother cut apples into pieces to demonstrate what fractions looked like compared to the whole. He later was quoted as saying that the lesson was the most important one he had ever learned because it taught him the value of intelligent problem-solving.

It’s very easy to get caught in the loop of only worrying about tomorrow or replaying the past. A good teacher once said, “Look at your feet. Are they where they are supposed to be? Are they headed in the direction you want to be going?” Of course, when this statement is made, the reaction can be “What?” or “That is so lame.” The better reaction is, “Let me look and see where they are pointing me.” There is much to be learned from paying attention to the direction your feet and ultimately your head are pointing towards.
