Mode 5: Catalyzing YT icon

Ideas to remember forever (cognitive tattoos)

  

Premise

Many of us (maybe all) draw on wisdom bites from our past, those brief comments which carry more wisdom than their word count supports. Serious speakers hone their important lines to create lasting memories.(Note: Catalysts create quick reactions, yet remain unchanged.

 

Examples

"Every good speaker... was once a bad speaker... who kept on speaking." Bob Murphey

  

"... and that nation, of the people, by the people and for the people, shall not perish from the earty." President Lincoln at Gettysburg

  

"Is this the best you can do? No? Turn it in when it is." Mrs. Eckert

  

"Be good and have fun." Mom

  

"We have nothing to fear, but fear itself. " FDR

 

Suggestion

Write the catalizing lines important to you, then keep creating your own.
