Shoshin: The Beginner's Mind
Shoshin: The Beginner's Mind
"In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities, but in the expert's mind there are few." — Shunryu Suzuki, Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind Do you remember the wonder of learning something for the very first time? The **Beginner's Mind** (Shoshin) is that state of open, eager, and unbiased curiosity—free from the assumptions, judgments, and expertise that can narrow our vision over time. In our pursuit of mastery, we often lose the very quality that makes learning magical. This Curious Souls Cafe is an invitation to rediscover that state. We'll explore how to gently set aside our inner "expert" to make room for fresh questions, unexpected connections, and genuine awe. This isn't about ignoring experience, but about learning to see with new eyes again: * How can a beginner's mindset transform a routine task? * How can "not knowing" improve our conversations? * How can curiosity be a guide through uncertainty? In addition, we'll also explore how this mindset differs from the uninformed overconfidence described by the [Dunning-Kruger effect](https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunning%E2%80%93Kruger_effect), focusing instead on the humble, active curiosity that fuels real growth. Join us to celebrate the courage and joy of being a perpetual beginner. Inviting all who are... 🌱 Feeling stuck in familiar patterns and seeking a fresh perspective. 🎨 Longing to reconnect with the pure joy of learning, just for its own sake. 🧠 Curious about how to quiet the inner critic or the "expert" voice that says, "I already know." 🤔 Navigating a life transition or new challenge and wanting to approach it with openness. ✨ Interested in how humility and curiosity can lead to deeper wisdom than certainty ever could. 📅 Agenda / What You'll Experience 💬 Icebreaker Conversation Cards (Round 1) We will use virtual question cards. Here are some sample questions. * What's something simple you learned or noticed recently that gave you a genuine sense of wonder or "beginner's mind"? * Describe a time when admitting "I don't know" led to a better outcome or a more interesting conversation. * What is a subject, skill, or activity you once felt excited about that now feels routine or burdensome? What changed? * The Dunning-Kruger effect suggests we need knowledge to see our own ignorance. How does this create a paradox for cultivating a "beginner's mind"? From there, we’ll embark on a respectful, engaging, and meaningful conversation, celebrating the diversity of perspectives and ideas within the group. Note: This session may involve virtual question cards accessed via a link or QR code. If you do not have a device (phone/tablet) to access these, please ask a facilitator for assistance; we have spare units available. 💬 Spontaneous Reflective Question (Optional Round) After warming up, our diverse group of friends and strangers will come together in a circle to exchange ideas on an intriguing topic chosen spontaneously. We may either continue with questions from the round one, or write our own questions. Each participant is encouraged to contribute by sharing a unique question. You’re welcome to bring a question that’s been on your mind, or you can draw inspiration from the conversation cards provided. Once all the questions are collected, the group will collaboratively select one to kick off the discussion. 💬 Final Thoughts and Feedback Where time allows, in the final 10 minutes of the event, we’ll take a moment to reflect on the key insights, memorable moments, and takeaways from our discussions. This is a chance to distill the shared wisdom and leave with a deeper understanding of the topics we’ve explored together. After the event officially concludes, the group may choose to extend the session, depending on the group’s interest. Of course, you’re welcome to leave at any time that feels right for you. An anonymized summary will be shared for sessions where key insights are identified. After the meeting, our facilitators and participants may reflect on the discussion and contribute to a summary or collaborative workbook based on their notes and observations. Additionally, questions may be revisited in future sessions in an anonymized manner. To explore what our events are like, check out our official website at [https://curioussouls.cafe](https://curioussouls.cafe) 📍 Location City: Hong Kong Address: Empire Centre, 68 Mody Road, Tsim Sha Tsui East Inside the shopping mall of Empire Centre, there is a large open area dedicated to a café.

Speak Easy (Storytelling)
Speak Easy (Storytelling)
The topic for January is "Chemistry" Speak Easy: true stories, told live. The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 7:00 pm, show starts at 7:30 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast. Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect. The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!

December Book Club/White Elephant Book Exchange
December Book Club/White Elephant Book Exchange
Welcome, readers! ❄️ Our December read is **_A Quiet Life by Ethan Joella._** A Quiet Life by Ethan Joella is a tender, character-driven novel that follows three people in a small Pennsylvania town as they each cope with loss and seek connection. Chuck, a widower, struggles to find meaning after his wife’s death; Ella, a young woman, faces the heartbreak of her missing daughter; and Kirsten, a veterinary technician, grieves her father while contemplating her future. Their stories intertwine gently, revealing how grief and hope coexist—and how even small acts of kindness can help people rediscover purpose and peace in the aftermath of tragedy. Looking forward to discussing with everyone! At this meeting, our third annual White Elephant book exchange will take place! If you'd like to participate, bring a gift-wrapped book that you already own. On the gift wrap, write the genre of the book. We will meet at Zaftig Brewing Co in their event room in the back. We are welcome to bring in our own food, but **drinks must be purchased at the bar.** Happy reading! 📖
