WEEK 4- THE ART OF POSSIBILITY: CHAPTERS 9-12
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 22, 2011
 
This week’s reading continues with chapters 5-8 of “The Art of Possibility” by Zander, R. and Zander, B. Chapter nine was entitled, “Lighting a Spark”. This chapter showed how we can inspire in those around us, action, creative expression, and contribution. Chapter ten, “Being the Board”, spoke of simply how we should all be 100% responsible for how things are going. Next was chapter eleven, “Creating Frameworks and Possibility”. This chapter gave me the idea of how we put this practice into reality, in the type of “world” we may live in so that we can make a difference. Lastly is chapter twelve, “Telling the WE Story”. This chapter speaks of how finally by coming from a “we” type of partnership. We can create a bridge that unites all divisions and people as one. This could be a real possibility for world peace from this point of view.

Your concise summary of the chapters is good, however, I think that your summary of chapter 10 is a little oversimplified.  Perhaps I am complicating or misinterpreting the author's purpose, however, I think the example they use with the drunk driver states that its not about all of us being "100% responsible for how things are going," as you said,  but instead about not getting wrapped up in the blame game because it distracts from the end goal.
