Day 5: Dr. Seuss, Thinking

“Think left and think right and think low and think high. Oh, the things you can think up if only you try!”~Dr. Seuss

"Oh, the things you can think up if only you try!” Do you ever think about what you're thinking about??? Really? It's called Metacognition and we don't do it often enough. We let negative thoughts just flow through our brains without ever stopping them or re-framing them.

How often do you really think during the day? 5, 6 times? More or less? We think that we think, but most jobs rely on you doing the same thing over and over again without thinking. In fact, 96% of your day is run by your subconscious mind. What do you think about that?? When was the last time you thought about doing your job differently? Ever?? 


Imagine if you could be in your conscious mind just a couple of %s more.  How much would you be able to accomplish?  How far would you be able to go?  What could you do with that?

Action:
Today, when you are confronted by a normal challenge, don't solve it the usual way. Think of a better way to deal with it. Who knows? You might create a new way to do things!

Know. Be Known. Make A Difference!

“Think left and think right and think low and think high. Oh, the things you can think up if only you try!”
