Aandachtsmanagement

Daniela Avendaño

So our first step in improving our outcomes is to train ourselves to identify the moments when judgment is called for in the first place, and pause to create space to think clearly. This training takes a lot of time and effort, because it involves counterbalancing our hardwired biological defaults evolved over many centuries. But mastery over the ordinary moments that make the future easier or harder is not only possible, it’s the critical ingredient to success and achieving your long-term goals.

Clear Thinking

Shane Parrish

What I propose in this book touches a paradigm. Not something you can refute with figures or tip over in a good conversation, but the way a whole profession has looked at its work for thirty years. For anyone who works in information stewardship, the document is the natural unit of thinking. A file is a collection of documents, an archive is a collection of files, an organisation is what it has recorded together. For anyone who has recorded their work in documents for thirty years, this doesn’t sound like an idea but like an attack on the foundation. That explains why most of the reactions I get aren’t resistance, but awkwardness and discomfort. People see it, and then don’t know what to do with it. Because admitting it has to be done differently means admitting it could have been done differently all along.
