Tiny Experiments - Anne-Laure Le Cunff - Bog

We dance with liminality or in-between times whenever we make a major change. And now we're experiencing a collective liminality as billions of people re-evaluate how to live a good life on an increasingly turbulent planet. Liminality (from the Latin limen, "threshold") can cause anxiety and paralysis, but applied neuroscience and creativity expert Anne-Laure Le Cunff says it is also a time of creative possibility, a time for growth, change, and discovery. LIMINAL MINDS: PREDICTABLE SUCCESS IN AN UNPREDICTABLE WORLD offers a radical reinvention of how we plan and achieve goals. Le Cunff rejects rigid "SMART" goals as an artifact of a siloed, orderly world that no longer exists (if it ever did). And where other books addressing information overload and unavoidable interconnectivity advise digital detoxes and ruthless curation, Le Cunff says since you can't shut the world out, why not invite it in?LIMINAL MINDS replaces the old, linear model of success with a circular "PARI" (Pact/Act/React/Impact) model, in which goals are discovered, pursued, and adapted-always in conversation with the outside world. To make the most of liminality, readers actively shape their digital and IRL communities; they identify the smallest units of success for daily action; and they learn to widen their cone of uncertainty in times of duress. Le Cunff proposes Mind Gardening to turn chaos into creative insight and shows how anchor rituals are an important principle of Mindful Productivity. When collaborating with whatever turmoil the outside world delivers, readers will use Metacognition for sanity and self-knowledge. It's a model that not only helps us get our work done but keeps us engaged, curious and thriving along the way.
