about the way we think

by Rick Baker

People underestimate the adaptability of their brains…with intent and effort we can improve the many ways our brains serve us.
 
People underestimate their biases… with some adjustments we can improve our relationships with other people.
 
Communication is trickier than we would like it to be.
 
People are not too busy…they just need to use their time more carefully.
 
Understand individual strengths – play to strengths & work to strengths.
 
When it feels like something is wrong, something is wrong.
 
Decisions are easier when we seek simple.
 
If we want to experience smooth change then we must continuously pave the path for it.
 
Change is only constructive when people are comfortable.
 
As a rule there is no such thing as constructive criticism… that’s an oxymoron 95% of the time.
 
We can nurture creativity…humour is one key, practice is another.
 
Technology advancement, including social media, has changed the pattern for future business success… we must tap into the ‘cognitive surplus’.
 
Clients’ Clients are a key to success.
 
Taskmulti-ing is better than multitask-ing.
 
It is easier to be objective when observing another business than it is when observing our own.
