Reading 3

These two readings have brought forth a new method, at least for me, of evaluating and executing assignments. Whereas I am used to a simple "right" or "wrong" on any given assignment, these articles portray a different message. These articles stress individualism and cooperation. Although most rules strongly (although in a beneficial way) deviate from my experiences as a science student, I feel that some rules are shared over all fields of study.

The strongest similarity between the arts and sciences is the stress of hard work. Only with sincere concentration does a work (or test) becomes "good". However, Mau implies a "relax" message that seems to be extremely important. I would estimate that at least a quarter of the "rules" have to do with thinking things through and taking risks - don't over think too much - "keep moving."
