I am in Iowa to deliver a keynote presentation (entitled "Why Future Trends in Healthcare Will Require Unlearning") to the Iowa Healthcare Collaborative today.
After working on my presentation early this morning, I decided to go for a walk at sunrise. The photo to the right offers a view of what I saw.
As I stared at the pool of fog in the distance, it occurred to me that I was also standing in fog--I just couldn't see it clearly.
It then dawned on me that it is always easier to see when someone else is enveloped in a fog; it's far more difficult to comprehend that you are also in the thick of it.
One key to unlearning is to begin to appreciate--whether you realize it or not--that we are all in a fog.
