Get More Mileage from your Thinking Time
Thursday, March 11, 2010
8:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m. Eastern
(7:00 p.m. Central, 6:00 p.m. Mountain, 5:00 p.m. Pacific)
Dial in with a land-line telephone (or listen afterwards on your computer)
Thinking is your means of figuring out what to do. A little targeted thinking can propel you into action when you're feeling stuck. But as Sir Joshua Reynolds observed 200+ years ago, "there is no expedient to which a man will not resort to avoid the real labor of thinking." How do you get started on the thinking?
In this class, I teach easy ways to jump start your thinking. I show you how a few minutes of targeted thinking may bring fantastic results, and always makes the rest of the task easier.
This is an interactive teleclass consisting of lecture, exercises, and discussion. You will have an opportunity to do some targeted thinking on your own project, so have paper and pencil ready.

"I had been worrying about getting prepared for a
2-hour internet radio interview later in the evening. I was able to stop
worrying and get prepared in one hour after attending your Jump Start Your
Thinking teleclass." |

"This is very good stuff. I gained useful insights
during each of the timed exercises. In just a few minutes, I was able to
clarify my thinking about two major issues in my life! And that handout of
questions is a gold mine." |
Q: Are there written materials to supplement this
class?
A: Yes. When you sign up, you will be sent a link to a one-page handout which
you can refer to while you listen. Plus, during the class I will tell you how to
receive a free report on "Questions to Jump Start Your Thinking."
Q: Will this free teleclass be held again in the
future?
A: Yes. I will offer it periodically. The next time will be
Thursday, May 10.
Q: Why do I need a land-line telephone instead of a
cell phone?
A: Cell phones do not connect properly to the phone bridge
and can cause connection problems for you and others. In some cases they do
not connect at all (e.g., cell phones often hang up).
If you disregard this instruction and are able to connect, you should mute your phone for the entire session. If we have sound quality problems, you should hang up immediately. See below for how you can download a recording after the call.
Q: Is internet phone okay?
A: If you have an internet phone through a cable company or other reputable
provider, and you have good quality calls without feedback, echo, and dropped
lines, you should be fine.
Some of the "Voice Over Internet Phone" (VOIP) services are low quality. If you are using one of these, and we have sound quality problems, you should hang up. See below for how you can download a recording after the call.
Q: I don't want to pay for a call to the USA. What can I do? The phone bridge is a regular USA phone number, not an 800 number. If you don't have unlimited long distance to USA numbers, and you're worried about the expense of the call, you can find low-cost calling cards to the USA. Or, you can wait and download a recording after the call. See below.
Q: Can I download a recording of the class instead
of listening live?
A: Yes. If you
sign up in advance for the teleclass and can't make it for any reason, you will have a short
window right after it in which you can download a recording. Everyone who signs
up in advance will get download information after the class is held.
But try to attend live, so you can ask questions and get the full
benefit of the teleclass.

"After taking the 'Jump Start' course, I found
myself using the techniques within 24 hours, to good effect!" "I found the Thinking on Paper technique to be quite useful. I
was able to reach some clarity about my goal after just the short 5-minute
exercise during the class. That was surprising to me! I think the technique
will be helpful to me in the future." |
