a few
IDEAS…
This
book…
EXPLAINS
 the benefits
 of making
     bad decisions
SHOWS security
how risk is your
         in   LIFE
WHY
 unreason
 is better than
    reason
It´s about
 having the
CONFIDENCE
             to roll the dice
It´s the wrong way to think,
   but the right way to win
LET US START OFF ON THE RIGHT FOOT
 BY MAKING SOME WRONG DECISIONS.
DO NOT TOUCH.




This is a painting with the Braille embossed. The Braille reads
“Do Not Touch”, yet the only way you know this is by touching it.




                           LOVELY     PARADOX …
TRAPPED.
It´s not because you are
making the   wrong decisions,
 it´s because you are
making the   right       ones.
We try to make
sensible decisions
based on the facts in
front of us.
                   The problem with
                    making sensible
               decisions is that so is
                 everyone else.
I WISH.
I WISH MEANS: wouldn´t be nice if

 If you always make the right decision, the safe decision,
    the one most people make, you will be the same as
                     everyone else.



ALWAYS WISHING LIFE WAS DIFFERENT
I WANT.
I WANT MEANS: if i want it enough i will get it

  Getting what you want means making the decisions you
            need to make to get what you want
                         Not the decisions those around you
                                      think you should make


START TAKING BAD DECISIONS AND IT WILL
TAKE YOU TO A PLACE WHERE OTHERS
ONLY DREAM OF BEING
DECISIONS
DECISIONS
DECISIONS.
When you look back there
will be things you will regret.
You made the
wrong decision.
You made the
wrong decision.
You made the
right decision.
Life is about
decisions.
YOU
are the person

    YOU
choosen to be
ROCK THE
BOAT.
EVERYBODY NEEDS ONE OF THESE.
            If you want to know how your life is
             going to turn out, you just have to
                know where you´re heading
of your ambition,
If this is the level
TRY AIMING
HIGHER
DO IT, THEN FIX IT AS YOU GO.
Too many people
spend too much time
trying to perfect
something before they
actually do it.
ASK FOR A SLAP IN THE FACE.
Instead of asking what´s
right...
           …ask what´s
           wrong.
Truth hurts, but in
the long run it´s
better than a pat on
the back.
TAKE CHARGE.
your
own worst
       .
When things go wrong it´s
tempting to shift the blame.
When things go wrong it´s
tempting to shift the blame.

                  ´
What´s   your
point of view?
Think The Opposite
“Most people are
other people.
Their thoughts
are someone else´s
opinions,
Their lives a mimicry,
Their passions a
quotation.”
               Oscar Wilde
What´s your
          ?
THERE IS NO RIGHT POINT OF VIEW
There is a conventional
    point of view.
There is a personal
     point of view.
There is a large point of view
  wich the majoraty share.
There is a small point of
view wich just a few share.
…
…
There is no right point of view.
You are always

             .
You are always
WRONG            .
IT just
depends from
wich
you are looked at.
WHAT IS A
GOOD IDEA?
One that happens

          .
If it doesn´t,

                 .
IT´S NOT ALWAYS GOOD
TO HAVE IDEAS.
Having too many ideas is   not
always a good thing.
It´s too easy to move on
to the next one




                and the next one
                to the next one
If you don´t have many ideas,
you have to make those you do
have work for you.
BREAD. YOU KNOW
IT MAKES SANDWICHES.
THI$ WILL MAKE
YOU CREATIVE.
For a creative person
starting out on a career, try not
thinking about film or media or

whatever                            .
Think about money.
It´s
HONEST
DON´T STAY TOO
LONG IN A JOB.
RESIGN.

IT´S THE WAY TO SHOW
YOU MEAN BUSINESS
FIRED?

IT´S THE BEST THING
THAT CAN HAPPEN TO YOU
HERE IS A LESSON.
It is better to live in ignorance
than with knowledge.
Solving the problem
is the exciting part




         not knowing the answer
FINAL
thoughts
An interviewer with a wooden leg
       said to Frank Zappa
“With your long hair, from here i am
  sitting you could be a woman”
Frank Zappa replied
“From where i am sitting you could
          be a table”
I DON´T LIKE
THIS MAN
ANY MORE
THAN YOU.
What i do
like is the
impact his
image makes.
The way his
picture makes
us react, in the
 way you are
 reacting now.
SIMPLY
CHANGE
YOUR LIFE.
The world is what you think of it.
Think of it differently and your
life will change.
