Wisdom From the Saddle
  1. Never say you have conquered a hill. The hill will be there waiting for you the next day and the. Day after that rain or shine. You might be able to climb it today but tomorro is a different story. You might be sick, having a toothache, tired, having cramps etc. but the hill will still be there...
  2. When going uphill it is a good idea to look down especially long big hills. Take the task one revolution at a time. Just as in life, dont look at the top of the hill because it is too far and might demoralize you. But if you just at break the big job into smaller tasks, it will make the task seem easier.
  3. Do not be tempted to follow other people's pace. Cycle against your own performance. Go at your own pace.

Retooling Your Brain with Visual Thinking (Tools for Creative Thinking)

"The clarification of visual forms and their organization in integrated patterns as well as the attribution of such forms to suitable objects is one of the most effective training grounds of the young mind."  —Rudolph Arnheim I used to think that creativity is a natural talent God given to the lucky few. Thus only creative people will produce creative results. However, throughout my career as a training consultant, I discovered that if we give people the tools of creativity, they will produce similar outcomes. Quite often this can astound them and change their beliefs about their creative thinking abilities. This shows that creative thinking is a skill that can be learned.  In this blog, I will share a very powerful method of thinking outside the box i.e. visual thinking. This method is powerful because it is able to bring out ideas in ways that the conventional method is not able to express. Numerous research has been conducted to prove the benefits of visual thi...

Is your Thinking Pattern Built for Success ?

Do you know that most of the time the only difference between successful people and failures is in how they think ? In my line of work as a training consultant, I find this to be true all the time. One of the most obvious difference in thinking between successful people and failures is successful people do not make or take excuses in their thinking. They focus their thinking in doing and finding ways to implement worthwhile ideas. They focus more on how to make things work rather than finding blames on why things fail. Failures on the other hand will focus on their inabilities and focus their attention on the different excuses they can find to justify why an idea cannot be implemented. Result is the dependent on attention. What we focus on gets expanded. As such when we focus on excuses and failures in our lives, that will be the outcome of our lives. In contrast, the mindset of successful people is always saying to themselves that the solution to a problem is not there yet beca...
