The Magic of
Thinking Different
How ordinary people do extraordinary things
Google: “Nobody likes a know it all”
Change your passwords
to something funny or a
Disney Song!
How do ordinary
people do
extraordinary things?
They think differently.
Why do we
work 8-5?
Be
unreasonable.
“If teachers had been led to
expect greater gains in IQ,
then increasingly, those
kids gained more IQ.”
-Rosenthal, 1964
In school, at work,
at home, in sports,
and in the kitchen.
Your expectations dictate your
outcome.
Anyone can
be a hero
(Do something impossible)
Stop thinking one person
can’t make a difference.
My
Hero’s
Degas
Cézanne
Monet
Renoir
Pissaro
Sisley
No one is born with
courage,
you earn it.
Vulnerability
(The most underrated
characteristic in leaders)
Try new things,
change your mind
(Consistently move your cheese)
Let’s make a
painting!
Anything is
possible
There’s magic
in thinking
different.
Anyone can be a hero
Be vulnerable
Move your cheese
