“Check.”
“And second,” said Brian, “get some new glasses …”
“What's wrong with my glasses?”
“No worries,” replied Brian. “I mean I want you to use a new set of culture lenses. Think like X-ray vision, but instead of bones, they expose culture. Look at Stamina like you examined the ‘white space' of Arthur's. Take detailed notes, and email what you find.”
“Check,” affirmed Sam.
“It's not as easy as it seems,” said Brian as he flicked a coin toward Sam and said, “Catch!”
Sam caught it.
“What did I throw?”
Sam answered, “A dime.”
“Good. Now close your hand around it. You seen a dime before?”
“Of course,” replied Sam.
“Tell me who's on the front and which way he faces,” said Brian.
“Uh …” Sam hesitated.
“Not sure? Okay, tell me the three items on the back.”
Sam stood in silence.
“The man on the front's Franklin Roosevelt, and he faces left,” said Brian. “On the back are an olive branch, torch, and oak branch, from left to right.”
Sam opened his hand and confirmed it.
“I didn't do that to you to distress you,” said Brian, “but to impress upon you there's a big difference between looking and paying attention. And last thing. The lenses also work at home. I know we haven't talked about it, but Stamina isn't the only place with ‘white space' around the dots. Culture happens at home too.”
