and how I’m going to face up to it after 10 years.
All is explained in the video, but before you play it… cross your heart and promise you’re not going to rag me about it…
After only minutes of listening to the bottom-line audio, I was excited. After listening to the whole audio, I am convinced - Cath Duncan’s bottom-line book club is fabulous! - It may well revolutionise the way busy individuals read and learn. Cath has a charming manner and a wonderful skill for articulating the key concepts presented in the book, weaving these ideas together with her own insights as a coach and providing written exercises for deeper learning. It’s so valuable – it’s like having the very book author and your personal coach together in your own living-room!

Recently, my husband, Andy, suggested we cycle a route called the C2C, which involves cycling about 150 miles across the North of England over 4 days. In spite of the fact that neither of us have owned a bicycle since we were about 18 years old, we’ve committed to doing it and we’re working on getting fit enough to do the trip in June. It’s not a big deal - lots of people conquer much more impressive challenges, but it’ll certainly stretch our boundaries.
I’m busy reading a fantastic book: “A Whole New Mind: Why Right-Brainers Will Rule the Future” by Daniel Pink. Right-brain-driven thinking involves the ability to think holistically and see the “big picture”, to notice the relationships between objects in a system, the ability to think creatively, intuitively and tangentially, the ability to recognise patterns and to understand metaphors, and the ability to interpret other people’s emotions and express your own emotions. Pink does a great job or laying out the changes that are taking place globally in the world of work, and explaining why Right-brain-driven thinking is becoming a success necessity instead of a “nice-to-have.”

How often do you think to yourself, “I just need to solve this problem, and then I can relax”? Well, as counter-intuitive as it sounds, it’s putting off your relaxing that’s preventing you from solving your problem. And here’s why:
As I talked about in a previous post, there are 2 types of focus that facilitate problem-solving: eagle vision and mouse vision.
