Tyranny of the Urgent

Lee posed the question, “How many important things are going on around us that we don’t see because of the tyranny of the urgent?” Lee helped emphasis this point by showing us a video and asking us to count how many passes are made between the students wearing white shirts. Count the number of passes for yourself by clicking on the image below to take you to the YouTube video.



Now watch it again without counting passes and see if you notice anything else in your second watch. It was amazing how many people missed certain details the first time. What did you see?

It has made me consider how much I miss in the busy nature of my day. Also made me consider what am I looking for.
