4. Edward Debono
■ Dr. Debone was born in Malta.
■ He was a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford .
■ He holds several degrees from Oxford and
Cambridge.

languages and spoken in 52 countries.

5. Intelligence
■ It mean mental ability
■ Intelligence is the potential
■ Way of use this potential is called thinking
skill.
■ Intelligence is something we are born with.
Thinking is a skill that must be learned.

7. Speed
■ There is evidence that intelligence correlates
with transmission along neurons.
■ Ferrari v/s Fiat car
■ There is no relationship between speed of the
Ferrari and the skill of the driver.
■ Many intelligent people are not good thinkers.

8. V/S

9. The intelligence trap
■ Being tall is an advantage and some times it
has disadvantage.
■ Sometimes an advantage carries with it some
advantages.
■ Intelligence trap is the trap in which highly
intelligent people often fall.

10. Defend:
■ Highly intelligent person can take up a
position on a subject and then defend that
position vigorously and ably with the full
power that superior intelligence.
■ Ability to defend that position ability and
vigorously does not mean it’s a valid position
by selecting evidence, values and perceptions
it is possible to defend almost any position

11. Attack:
■ Our habit of argument provides an opportunity
to display intelligence in attacking some
other persons thinking there is triumph off
ego and achievement. This is irresistible to
intelligent people.
■ Different views of skilled thinker based on
different experiences, different information,
different values or different perceptions.

12. Teaching thinking:
■ “The Mechanism of Mind”
■ That how nerve network in the brain allow
incoming information to arrange itself in
pattern.
■ All patterning system are a symmetric and that
is basis of creativity and humour.
■ Example of a Small Town
■ Exactly in same way Random words drop you
at the periphery of subject.

14. Software:
■ Powerful computer with high speed processor,
but this will be useless if you does not have
adequate software.
■ Similarly intelligence is the processing speed
and thinking is the software.
■ Intelligence itself will not create that
software.

15. Provocation
■ Another process of lateral thinking(means
thinking differently or out of the box).
■ Example
Man replacing the wheel of his car

16. Wide Range
■ Taught thinking to a very wide range of
audience.
■ From Down Syndrome children to a class
made up entirely of Noble Prize Winners
■ From illiterate to top executives in
corporations like IBM and DuPont

17. The Gang Of Three
■ The Gang of three of course were
1. Socrates(from him came love of dialectic and
argument).
2. Plato(from him came the notion of ultimate
truth).
3. Aristotle(came the boxes logic we use today
something is judged to be in the box or
outside)

18. Argument:
■ From GG3 comes our habit of argument
■ This is highly inefficient way of exploring a
way
■ Example: a man painted his car black and
white

19. Six Hats
■ Hats are used as a symbol to indicate a
particular mode of thinking.
■ This method reduces thinking time to one-
quarter or even one –tenth.
