THINKING AND PERCEPTION - Edward de Bono

Thinking is that waste of time between seeing something and knowing what we do about it.
The change from unknown to known is understanding, and the way this change comes about is thinking.

To regard thinking as a skill rather than a gift is the first step towards doing something to improve that skill.

Skill in thinking will determine your happiness and your succes in life.
Make plans
Take initiatives
Solve problems
Open up opportunities
Design your way forward

Feelings and values the most important things in life.

The ingredients of thinking are provided by perception.
Perception is the way we look at the world.
Perception is the way we carve up the world into chunks that we can handle.
Perception is the choice of matters to consider at any one time.
Perception chooses weather regard a glass as half empty or half full.
