Innovation
Ideas galore
“The best way to have a good idea is to have lots of ideas.” — Linus Pauling.
Are you stuck with that one precious idea, iterating it with no end in sight?
Make a habit of brainstorming multiple solutions. You can do this by writing them down in a short period of time, like in our Idea Eight tactic from Workshop Tactics.
This will make you view each idea more objectively - and help you pick the best one.
Leadership
The delegation workaround
Are you overwhelmed with work?
Do you struggle with delegating tasks?
Even if what you’re doing is very complex, you can still ask others for help - by breaking down your project into smaller tasks and giving them to others.
Productivity
How masters learn
Becoming an expert in a field takes thousands of hours.
Want to speed up the process? Master structural learning.
It focuses on understanding the underlying principles of each skill - and then applying them to a different situation.
Like when you learn how to write a more convincing pitch, making it stronger with a personal story. Then, you apply the same storytelling skills to the emails and posts you write.
