On my way to play some tennis this morning, I came up with an idea for the next YCISL e-book. It’s about Hard Work. The idea springs from Alison Ledgerwood’s 2013 TEDxUCDavis Talk “Getting stuck in the negatives (and how to get unstuck)” which was somewhere along the way re-titled to “A simple trick to improve positive thinking.” In that talk, she says “We literally have to work harder to see the upside of things.” That statement links to another which I do find more resonating which is “It’s all hard work. Nothing comes easily” – spoken by Richard St. John in his 2005 TED Talk “8 Secrets of Success,” but credited to Rupert Murdoch through an interview.<\/p>\n

So I think I will work on an e-book with maybe eight examples of creativity and hard work.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. “We literally have to work harder to see the upside of things.” Alison Ledgerwood. TEDxUCDavis. 2013.<\/li>\n
  2. “It’s all hard work. Nothing comes easily.” Richard St. John. TED. 2005.<\/li>\n
  3. “It’s very, very simple to get what you want. But it’s not easy.” Mel Robbins. TEDxSF. 2011.<\/li>\n
  4. Work = Force x Distance. An equation to describe the Growth Mindset. The YCISL Personal Story & Roadmap.<\/li>\n
  5. Push. Pull. Center. Mindfulness. Sweat Equity. Stress & Strain. About YCISL EQ.<\/li>\n
  6. Active Listening. Filters. A YCISL conversational topic.<\/li>\n
  7. “Must try harder.” Sir Ken Robinson. TED. 2006.<\/li>\n
  8. Creativity. Fast Thinking. Divergent-Convergent Thinking. Self-Edit. Self-Doubt. The YCISL Creativity Model.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    That’s probably enough for the kind of short e-book I have been publishing. Hopefully, I can make it interesting for readers. The structure goes from ideas to concepts to a model.<\/p>\n

    Looking forward to getting started.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
