Albert Einstein wrote 'We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.'

This Flashback Friday episode from Nov 2021 reminds us that too often we may listen but what do we actually hear? The intent of the Growing Older Living Younger podcast is to introduce new ways of thinking about the problems of how we age, to help our listeners discover their personal roadmaps to aging well. As this episode kicked off Season 2, we reflect that we have listened to many experts, but what did we actually hear them say?

I talk with Brian Morgan. President of Think Deeply, Write Clearly about bridging the many divides that are polarizing our society, by creative thinking and communication. We discuss the rampant proclamations of unsubstantiated information through myriad digital platform and social media, and the replacement of informed and constructive debate by 'cancel culture'.

As communicators how can we best share valuable information or ideas, knowing that our listeners will interpret our words in the context of their unique lived experience? As listeners how do we find the underlying context of the facts or opinions that are being put forward in discussion, to have a civilised discussion even though we may disagree? Listening to our expert guests, how can we best hear what they say, and put it into the context of our lifestyles to make decisions that are appropriate for ourselves.

The act of thinking deeply and creatively, being curious and laying down new neural pathways and connections, is one way to help our minds stay active, and our brains age youthfully.
