Think Better by Tim Hurson

I am still reading this book, there are plenty of excellent and brilliant ideas!!!

Copied from the book:


Sun - yellow, bright, creative

Sea - blue, deep, thoughful

There 's always plenty room for improvement

Thinking better is a skill

It's not what you know but how you think

Finding the Unexpected Connection

Creating the future

Human beings are far more skilled at following old patterns than at thinking new thoughts.

The overarching principle of productive thinking is this: creative thinking and critical thinking have to be separate.

When you come to a fork in the road, take it. Yogi Berra

Uncertainly is pain. Astonishingly, in some cases even more painful than death.

Brainstorming is like cholesterol - there's good and bad, and most people have only experienced the bad.
