1. The missing
self in the
selfie

2. The big miss
Boy drowned while friends
were taking a selfie in a river
What the selfie catches &
what the selfie misses

3. The selfie
How do I look?
What am I looking
at?

4. What defines us?
Our looks?
“Fashion is a form of ugliness
so intolerable that we have to
change it every six months”
– Oscar Wilde

5. What defines us?
Our feelings?
“The greatest predictor of
success is the skill of
resisting impulse”
– Daniel Goleman

6. What defines us?
We are
the lookers of our looks &
the feelers of our feelings

7. A thought-exercise
Close your eyes
Look at what appears on the
inner screen
Look for the seer of the inner
screen

8. Inside-out or outside-in?
Our consciousness is our most
fundamental resource
Whatever we do, we need our
consciousness to do it
