Until Tomorrow Change. Yeah. I wish I could Dream of Jeannie (an old TV show for those of you who don't know) and have one of my wishes granted. Change me- would be my wish. Better yet, I wish I could go within, decide I am going to change and immediately change. Unfortunately, I haven't found change to be that easy. And I am not referring to changing the deep-seated hidden patterns we don't realize we have that seem to defeat our every attempt at change.

Most of us would agree it would be inappropriate to address such subjects in literature class or before a statistics exam, so where do these questions get addressed? The great thinker and Rhodes Scholar, E. F. Schumacher, believed that all through school and university we are given guidance about life and knowledge, and generally this guidance had little relevance to the things that people cared about or the way they conducted their lives—the way life is really lived. The ACADEMi of Life was founded to fulfill Schumacher’s observation … to provide the place for people to discuss the things they cared about and the things that mattered most in life that they were never taught in school. The ACADEMi of Life, a place of higher learning, is dedicated to providing insights and training that much traditional education lacks. They are engaged in what would be one of the least expensive classroom experiences available in New York City. What's different about the Academi, is that there are no right or wrong answers, no definitive paths to result or a definitive outcome, no interpretation of data that will deliver either a passing.....read more
