Chapter 5: It Doesn’t Have To Be Either Or

Synopsis

We might achieve Project A or Project B. Do you want more time or more earnings? You're able to have a great life and average career or fair life and exceptional career. I’ve got yellow or red, which do you want?

Win or lose. Yes or no. The world is black or white. You're able to have this or that. Which do you select? We have to choose.

All of the statements and questions above are cases of either/or thinking. All of them pre-suppose that we live in a world bounded by the choice of either this or that - one or the other.

These statements are based on the belief that our world is confined. All of these choices are basically rooted in the “lack mentality.”

I believe there's an another choice. This choice will give you more options; it will better your outlook and attitude and the caliber of your life. (It similarly might lend greatly to bettering your standard of living).

Changing It

The following are some tips to follow in the quest to overhaul the property and yet bust the bank:

This 2nd approach amplifies our thinking and is founded on a notion that there's plenty in the world for everyone - plenty of time, chances, revenue, resources, people, fun, and experiences. I call it both/and” thinking. This mindset is rooted in the “abundance mentality.”

We began with either/or options. Let’s concentrate on just one (you're able to apply the logic and approach on any of the others -or anything else in your life) and regard two project opportunities with a both/and mentality. Start by asking . . . “How can we achieve both Projects A and B?”

By asking the question you're scrapping the underpinning of the lack mentality; by asking the question you're opening yourself to fresh theories.

Don’t have enough people to do both projects? If both have a favorable reward, why not get a little supplemental help either on the projects or on other work to free up time for the projects?

The aim of both/and thinking is to open us up to more options and opportunities.

Don’t have enough money to act on both projects? What if you establish a partner? Who else might benefit?

At this point, you may be thinking that if we keep saying “yes” we’ll never have any focus or achieve superior results in the options we make. Of course we still have to prioritize and make selections. The concept of both/and thinking is to open us up to more options and chances before directly moving to instituting a choice between A or B.

If you trust that the world is filled with a lot of possibilities and that there are always more options to consider, then you'll feel completely comfortable asking these sorts of queries. If we live in an either/or world, we're directly settling for one or the other before we even consider that something more or different is imaginable.

There are some keys to acquiring and utilizing “both/and” thinking. Realize that initially (and finally) employing this mental approach is a habit - a habit that you're able to sustain and grow.

Believe in abundance. It begins with a notion that more is available to us - in terms of hypotheses, resources, chances and approaches. Once we trust this is true we'll begin our search for more options.

Run on faith. Even if your belief of abundance isn’t yet firm, run on faith. Have faith that it's true, even if you can’t see it or feel it yet.

Question. To see the options you have to question, “why not both?” Or versions like, “How can we do both?” “What would we have to alter or adjust to attain both of these?” “Why do we have to pick?” You get the idea.

Consider the theories. When you've asked the question, be hospitable to the options and you’ll be amazed at how many will turn up for you.

What you're able to achieve now. You're coping with some situation right now. How are you thinking of it? Are you thinking either/or or both/and? If you're thinking of either/or take the steps above - try both/and thinking. Attempting it is the opening move - and that's a step you're able to take immediately.

Chapter 6: Sometimes You Need A Break

Synopsis

There's a true reality to taking a break.

This is something I got from all my books on how to be originative (the things I do for you, my dear readers!). Often after a break, I find errors, poor flow, or fresh views that I couldn’t see due to familiarity sightlessness. Walk away from brainstorming session and go back in a few hours or a couple of days. You’ll be surprised at what you get popping up your brain.

Take A Pause

Do you from time to time get ground to a halt when authoring material, analyzing, designing, or engaged in another creative enterprise? Or maybe you simply can't get rolling; you go through writer's block or blank out. The void page or screen may be daunting.

And so, take a break! I've determined that transferring from one sort of activity to a different one arouses creativity. This is especially true when transitioning from work to leisure time, exercise, or a hobby. Perhaps by resting our conscious mind we put into action our subconscious.

Consider a recent illustration. One break of the day, first thing, I began working on a proposal to print a third edition of one of my books. After approximately 2 hours, I had a good start, including an outline and a little bit of text.

Even so, I started to get stuck and as well get hungry. I biked to a nearby restaurant and, while savoring a light breakfast, 3 proposal-related thoughts "bulged" into my head. I wrote of them on the backside of paper placemats.

I then began a ten-mile bicycle ride, during which I stopped 3 times to briefly jot down more thoughts that came along "out of the blue." More of late, I followed exactly the same formula - breakfast and a 10 mile bicycle ride - and, on the ride and out of nowhere, I determined how to structure a report that was in the really early stages.

These certain situations are typical of many standardized originative experiences I've enjoyed over the years that were aroused by "shifting gears." Taking a break betters personal effectiveness and efficiency.
