Thinking differently

Learn to think differentlyThe key is to learn how High achievers act out of passion

“All men dream: but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity; but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dreams with open eyes, to make it possible.”

-T E Lawrence

is that? What textures do you experience?• What does it taste like? What sort of taste do you get in your mouth? What is
