From the founder: You Be A Thinker Too

InspireWell4Life editions: You Be … Too An introduction by Dr Alten du Plessis, founder of WorkSmart4Life.

You Be A Thinker Too is for people at work whose job asks them to think well: to analyse, decide, plan and solve problems, and to come up with something new.

It helps you develop both critical and creative thinking, so that you can analyse clearly, solve problems creatively and make better decisions.

You receive a personalised card deck and an ebook, both carrying your own name on every page. Each A4 card has a theme, a short description and an image on the front, and on the back a gathering of quotes from many voices and wisdom traditions, with room to write your own notes. The ebook holds the same wisdom as a flowing book with a clickable contents page and a dedication written for you. The themes cover creative thinking, critical analysis, decision making, planning and strategy, problem solving and habit formation, through cards such as Have Ideas, Imagine, Have Discernment, Have Perspective, Make Choices, Plan, Solve Problems and Be Habitual.

On WorkSmart4Life it sits on the WorkSmart library shelf, and it is one of the editions The Edge can give as a level reward for practice in Sharpen courses, the move about attention and focus. Each card invites you to reflect on its quotes and choose one that speaks to you today. I suggest you begin with the creative thinking cards, then turn to the problem you are working on and let the quote you chose open a new angle on it.
