The value of not thinking

by Rick Baker
On Dec 15, 2010
If you can stop thinking then you can give your brain a rest.
 
That will provide some significant benefit, particularly when you are under stress.
 
Here are a couple of suggestions about the Value of not thinking:
  • If we are not thinking then we have managed to turn off the mental noise that consumes and wastes much of our brainpower. Freeing up some brainpower…that’s a good thing.
  • If we are not thinking then we are more capable of being selective about our next thought choices. Our next thought choices can be better concentrated on a single topic. That is a thing of genius. And, our next thought choices can be more positive: it is easier to set negative thoughts aside by not thinking for a time rather than trying to replace a negative thought with a positive thought. That is a practical step toward the area known as positive mental attitude.
For most people, it is not easy to stop thinking.
 
It takes practice.

Sales Tweet #108

by Rick Baker

Sales Tweet #108 Ernest’s boss thinks Ernest is in denial. Ernest thinks denial is a river in Egypt.
 
The Thinking Behind the Sales Tweet
Most of me suspects I stole this from Zig Ziglar. But part of me is pretty sure I overheard a conversation, some time ago, between Ernest and Ernest’s boss where Ernest actually said he was definitely not in denial…he was nowhere near Egypt. Then, Ernest walked out of his boss’s office… shaking his head, he muttered something about his boss having a few too many martinis at lunch.
