Benefiting at work from Brain Based Insights

Whatever image your mind sees today – will likely command your reactions tomorrow. 

So, for example …

1. See food as a social opportunity and you’ll tend to host peers at dinner parties

See food as fat that distorts your body image and you’ll likely struggle with anorexia

2. See people across cultures as talented and you’ll invite their best ideas

See people who differ as less gifted and you’ll cut them down or exclude them

3. See a problem that confronts you as intractable and you’ll remain in a rut

See solutions rather than problems, and you’ll find answers that others miss

4. See yourself as inferior and your words and acts mimic growing inferiority

See unique ways to untie Gordian knots and you will move from strength to strength

See yourself cutting a Gordian knot and you could jumpstart your brain for  a unique solution that’s far easier than you think. Scientific America’s April edition tells it this way…

“In Gordium in the fourth century B.C., an oxcart was roped to a pole with a complex knot, and it was said that the first person to untie it would become the king of Asia. Unfortunately, the knot proved impossible to untie. Legend has it that when confronted with this problem, rather than deliberating on how to untie the knot, Alexander simply took his sword and cut it in two--then went on to conquer Asia. Ever since, the notion of a "Gordian solution" has referred to the attractiveness of a simple answer to an otherwise intractable problem.“
