And Henry knew, Henry had grown up in public schools in Concord and he had even taught for a very short time.
there and he knew the curriculum had to do with rote memory and just the basics of the three R's and that kind of thing.
And then, and memorization, definitely.
He wanted more critical thinkers to emerge from his teaching.
And that's the way he did get out there.
And that's the quiet, I think, that he was able to find.
And you could still do that now.
You can still go out.
Either of us, anyone listening to us right now, can, once this is over, not before, but once this is over, go out, take a walk around in nature and scientific studies these days.
that indicate that a simple matter of going out for 20 minutes and just looking at trees as you walk down the street or something like that can be a great stress reducer.
And it's just so simple, but Henry was locked into that back then.
Maybe both.
I certainly think it was a spiritual discipline, but you're getting me thinking about it.
I think that it felt to him like the most natural way to go about your life, whether that was in the course of, you use the word productivity, was that in the course of doing things or not, simplicity.
He became very successful as a surveyor, which we talk about in the book.
But the way he went about it was to be truly dedicated to measuring the plot, the land, the plot, plots of land, the plots of land as carefully as he could.
Or he had a project in the Concord River where he was plumbing the depths of the Concord River and all of that.
It was simple, the way he was doing it,
But it was also much more intense in the sense of being committed to getting it done right.
So in some sense, it's productive and profitable.
