“The Process of Distillation: G etting to the Essence of Things”

Week 1_ORG30002_S1 2020

“The rigor of the distillation process, the exercise of refinem ent, that's where the real learning happened.

Through the years, I've used it again and again – the m ental exercise of synthesis and distillation and getting to the very heart of things.

W hen you graduate from here, you exit with thousands of pages of personal text on which are inscribed beliefs and values shaped by years of education, fam ily interactions, relationships, experiences. And buried within those thousands of pages is your personal truth, your essence.”
