I admit I am skeptical person, and a lot of people I know would say I’m hard-headed. While blogging about the book The Art of Possibility, I have questioned a lot of the tactics as they do not always align with my personal theories.
But I really liked the section on “enrollment”. That is something that I think can be helpful in any person’s life, including my own. While I’m not sure about the terminology and associating it with college or a yoga class, I fully support the idea of being excited about things, especially in the workplace. While people may not adopt or agree with your ideas, the concept of offering your excitement, to put it out there, is a wonderful idea.
As the book says, they may not always be receptive, but the possibility is there that they could be receptive. And at what cost to you? Very little. Maybe exposing some passion you have for you job? Big deal. That’s a good thing. And sincerity goes a long way. Maybe they won’t be receptive the first time, but upon seeing numerous, sincere attempts on your part, you could whittle away at any barriers.
In such a busy, stressful time for me, this was a nice closing section to reflect upon.
Man Bryan I hear you, trust me, I began reading I had to read others post just to see if others thought this book was rather interesting. But it made me reflect back to the movie on the author, he was a very interesting character. I definitely found myself looking deeper into it and rightfully so that was where the message was. Glad to see you found a way to look past the rather interesting parody and get something out of this book as well.
