Thinking differently about work

September 15, 2011 by Gerry Murray

Rework

Rework ~ the future of work

Every so often you read a book and…”click” many things fall into place! Rework is one of those great books and I highly recommend that anyone who runs a business read it.

It’s credible

Although probably written with the wannabe get-rich-quick Internet entrepreneur in mind, it contains some of the best advice that anyone starting a business can get.

Confidence is not enough…

August 11, 2011 by Gerry Murray

courage quoteSomething looks, sounds and feels familiar about the current stock market activity. It’s all based on fear the journalists and analysts say. And, that appears to be true. But like a rabbit in the headlights it seems that investors don’t know which way to turn. So, I wanted to share two thoughts of wisdom.

 

 

Fear is often described as:

Fantasy

Experienced

As

When you think of it this makes sense. Who knows anything about tomorrow? But, if we run a doomsday fantasy in our heads then we will also experience doomsday feelings ~ aka feelings of no confidence. So, I guess we need to get people to run more upbeat fantasies. Try love for a change…

Secondly, they say that this is about confidence. Last week I had a coffee with my good friend, John Niland, and John pointed out a very valuable insight. Confidence is not enough… often what is required is Courage.

Thanks John for Thinking Differently for a Change…

Steve Jobs…raising the bar on Thinking Differently

October 19, 2010 by Gerry Murray

In this exclusive interview with former Apple CEO John Sculley, Leander Kahney outlines what according to Sculley are The Secrets to Steve Jobs’ Success. I’m grateful to Gerry McGovern (another remarkable thinker) for bringing this blog post to my attention.

It’s worth noting Jobs’ remarkable ability to move from Big Picture to Detail and back. This is a key skill in thinking differently…
