The author's background is, of all things, music composition. While studying the creative process to as a way to help himself create better music, Fritz discovered that there aren't just similarities between the creative process used by artists and the process businesspeople use to create results: it's the exact same process.
From a certain perspective, every creative and productive person is simply "making it up as they go along," regardless of their field of work or study.
If you're trying to accomplish something important and you're having trouble making progress, you should examine the structure underlying your actions. Trying to achieve better results without changing the underlying structure is like trying to ski uphill - you can try, but it's not going to work all that well. The Path of Least Resistance is an awesome piece of work. Three Steadfast Principles. Like you, before reading the book I had no idea what the heck that meant. Nor did I have any idea what structural conflict vs.

It is doubtful that students of any age are aware that the War of took place, for instance. The conclusions reached in this writing were reached in the same way a homicide detective establishes a pattern in regards to a serial killer. The international banking cartel are serial killers responsible for the murder of many key figures in American history much in the same way that the Pharisees were responsible for the crucifixion of Christ.
Do emotional feelings often cause you doubt and anxiety? Does life seem unfair and you don't know why? Don't worry, if you have answered with yes.
You are not alone. Countless people around the world live with uncertainty about love and life. Everyone seeks love. Everybody wants a healthy and prosperous life. But, something has happened along the way. We have become distracted and attach ourselves to temporary details of little significance during our journey. This book is a very deep read, but so necessary to experience.
It is one that I will find myself revisiting again and again. Highly recomm The concept of this book is quite simple, yet profoundly challenging in that most of us just don't realize how much power and control we have in the creation of our own lives.
Highly recommend. The most profound book I have read till now. I have read so many other books on psychology and all but was never able to get a hold of them as all were reactive-responsive approach.
I have this book opens up a new vision in me that I choose to be the predominant creative force in my life. Jan 07, elizabeth kimmel rated it it was amazing Recommends it for: the creatives. Recommended to elizabeth by: a random pull from a used book store in boulder, co. A guiding light illuminating some of the deeper questions for my unconventional mindset. Jan 22, Adrian Craciun rated it really liked it.
I have mixed feeling about this book after reading it. Some really deep and thoughtful ideas are combined with some esoteric bullshit. A worthy read if you can filter the crap. Jan 06, Martin Brochhaus rated it liked it Shelves: self-help , everyone-should-read-this , philosophy , 5-systems-thinking. I liked this one a lot.
The book doesn't really promise to be anything about Systems Thinking, but on my quest to read 5 books about Systems Thinking, this one somehow made it into my list. I think it helped me greatly to have read three other books about the topic, first. The book itself is a strange beast. On the one hand, the language is very clear and simple. The examples are tangible.
There are some very very simplistic systems diagrams here and there to underline a point. Nothing fancy. But I liked this one a lot. But on the other hand the book sometimes also seems to be very dense. I found myself several times losing the train of thought and going back to the chapter beginning, refocusing and beginning again. I'd say this is a good thing: I cared enough to want to understand this.
The whole thesis of the books makes a lot of sense to me, especially because I have been a creator myself basically my whole life music, graphics, text, code.
The chapters all nicely build on top of each other and lead to the whole picture step by step. This is great! I feel like the basic idea could be summed up on just one or two pages. Strangely enough, I still don't think that the book wasted my time. Like I said, this book is weird. My guess is: If you would read this summed up on two pages, you would be like "eh yeah, pretty obvious, common sense" and move on with life and ignore this.
But if you read the whole thing, it can really be quite the motivating experience. Why only three stars? Firstly: Some parts of the book feel like the author just wants to pump his own self-help courses. It's not overwhelming, but it is there. I hate books like this. The incentives are simply not aligned well. I want my books to be teachers, not gateway drugs.
Secondly: This book is so fantastically vague, it's like one of those "if you found a hammer, everything looks like a nail" situations. The author manages to apply his world view to everything that is wrong with the world, but when describing possible solutions, it's all very very vague.
I do believe that the mindset that this book tries to teach does indeed work, but man, you need to already be a highly functional human to apply this. This is not a self-help book that turns lazy bums into high performers. This is a self-help book that turns high-performers into superstars, and only some of them. My takeaway is: I do need to be much clearer about my "fundamental choices" and about the desired end result of my entire life.
This book like so many others reminded me that having a clear goal in life is utterly important. Of course, the daily hustle and bustle makes it very very easy to simply forget about the goal, or worse, never even take the time to think about one. For guilt-tripping me into taking that all important me-time and getting more clarity about my life-vision, I recommend this book to everyone!
It's weird. But it's good! I rarely give reviews or star ratings. I find that who I am know does not accurately depict the views of who I am on my way to become.
Thus, my reviews more often than not seem to be unripened. Still, I will make an exception. I surmise that my opinion will not change on this book.
This is an overwhelmighly bloated book. This could have been stripped down to nothing more than a blog post. Furthermore, I postulate that this would have brought forth the salient points of the book better.
Here the s I rarely give reviews or star ratings. Here the signal in the noise is likely to get lost in constantly divergent thoughts and needlesly bloated language. I believe Richard Feynman said something [1] of which the gist is: "If you cannot explain something in simple terms, you don't understand it. By bloating and overdressing what seems to be a pretty basic idea he makes it more inaccessible. Rising to the challenge, he said, "I'll prepare a freshman lecture on it.
I couldn't reduce it to the freshman level. That means we really don't understand it. Apr 14, Farhan Shoffi rated it liked it. A good book to read but of course, in every book, there is on and off.

Technically, it is thinking outside of the box. Conclusion : I may write this review negatively, but trust me, you need to read this. Dec 10, Petar rated it liked it. The book has really really good ideas and introduces an inspirational approach to living your life.
I thought, however, that the the fundamental idea is awfully diluted in lengthy reflections on unimportant and unrelated concepts. On several occasions I felt the author is losing direction and I had to skip forward. Some parts are contradictory, too simplified and confusing.

All in all, a good book, I enjoyed and would recommend it for the sake of jumping out of your default setup and look at things differently.
It is worth reading even for the mere exercise of thinking on your vision and deep yearnings Excellent clarifying book I was introduced to Robert and his work through Chris Duncan, Andre Chaperon and Shawn Twing, people who I've learnt a lot from and have considered as mentors. Roberts book clarifies how to move into the creative orientation and live a life that is true to yourself. Unlike the 'self-help' industry's way of telling us to 'fix' ourselves, this book reveals how the greatest 'creators' in history like Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, Leonardo DaVinci among others, were able to create in Excellent clarifying book I was introduced to Robert and his work through Chris Duncan, Andre Chaperon and Shawn Twing, people who I've learnt a lot from and have considered as mentors.
