6. Methodology is the theory guiding your process and methods are the practices you rely on to get at the knowledge.
My Question: What is the mind knowledge that goes along with the heart knowledge?
I developed the methodology and I relied on it to produce the knowledge. In this way, I made two contributions.

7. In my process, the circle of heart knowledge was also a method.
Circle direction is fluid.
Methods will change depending on what your question is and your relationship with knowledge. We all have different gifts.
My methodology and knowledge production was tightly bundled. It was not until I was done and when I looked back and said “How did I do this?” It was a very non-linear process. This is an issue when we think that proposals are only approved when and if the methodology is articulated.
Criteria of evaluation is IK, not History, Political Science, Sociology, Anthropology … .
