Getty Center Architect, Richard Meier

Can you flip ideas? Sure you can, as we've talked about before, flipping mostly refers to real estate, but can be applied to ideas, information, and products!

Take for example, the Getty Center. Seen from the San Diego Freeway, tucked away in the Santa Monica hills, is the Getty Center. Architects Richard Meier and Laurie Olin designed a beautiful and artistic structure.

Take a look at some of the Gettys fantastic features. In the end of your flipping, what will last, and will you be remembered? This is definately a lesson for those who wish to make an impact in their lives. Flip your ideas into something concrete. Something that will last for generations and give something back to society.

In Mind Like Water: Keeping Your Balance in a Chaotic World , Jim Ballard talks about meditation, reflection, and thinking in a mind like water state. I bought this some time ago and have been reading it slowly. It's definately a find at your local library, or used via ebay or Amazon .
