+ Empathy Prompts 
We absolutely love this. This particular prompt helps you understand what it’s like to have a cognitive condition like Dyslexia. However, if you click the Try Another button, it’ll rotate to something different like Parkinson’s. What a wonderful tool from Eric Bailey.

+ The Tipping Point
The tipping point is that magic moment when an idea, trend, or social behavior crosses a threshold, tips, and spreads like wildfire. Just as a single sick person can start an epidemic of the flu, so too can a small but precisely targeted push cause a fashion trend, the popularity of a new product, or a drop in the crime rate.
Such a great detail of the tipping point phenomenon, sure to change the way you think about selling products and disseminating ideas.
