Thinking is the fundamental human resource. Where we are today as a species is the aggregate of our thinking - the good, bad and ugly. And when we change our thinking, we change our worlds. I teach thinking for a living & invite you to upskill & expand your thinking to be a more effective person. We will discuss issues of the day & explore if & where poor thinking has been at play & experiment with better thinking models to understand how critical, relevant, scarce & much needed good thinking can be. Welcome to "The Problem Is Not The Problem Thinking Podcast!"

What's interesting about the relationship between fire and air. Why the tree? Why the parable of the tree?

    Patrick Bet-David PBD Podcast and Valutainment: You asked, I answered #SolvingGunViolence

    One of my favorite YouTubers asked his audience - me inclusive - days ago, to share possible solution to the US's ridiculous gun violence, control, safety problem. You asked, I answered. An overview? Well, since you asked so nicely... The structure of my offer centres around finding the whitespaces in between the competing interests of gun owners, gun manufacturers, regulators and non-gun owners. And borrowing from the familiar success of a 200+ years old industry to address the real problem! As my podcast says, The Problem Is Not The Problem! The problem is how you're thinking about the problem. Listen and upthink!

    My New Staff & an interesting conversation: US Gun Violence II

    So, I recently hired someone to handle digital marketing for us at Thinkers Edge - check us out on Facebook, Twitter & Instagram. It's hard to sell what you don't really understand, so I led her through a small part of the larger training - Upthink 2.0. Guys the experience was riveting, even for me! The outcome of our simple joint thinking exercise blew, even I, out of the water! I have talked about the US Gun Violence issue before, yet I was still floored at the insights that emerged from the session! What happened? Well, listen in! Cheers!

    The Problem of Mass Shootings in America: the 5 Whys Thinking Tools & the PRISM algorithm

    There is a way to have difficult discussions and debates. And it is by collective thinking. In this episode, I'm not sharing my personal opinion on Mass Shootings in America. Instead we use the topic as a use case for how thinking tools can be used in difficult conversations and situations. We explore the 5 Whys Thinking Tools and how to use them, when to stop, where to stop. We also explore the way the PRISM algorithm can be used to develop an Effective Problem statement. No matter where you lie on the socio-cultural spectrum, with better thinking we can get more efficient and effective. We can retain our values and improve the chances and possibility of actually solving the problem - as opposed to just talking about it. Get ready to learn better thinking, because a better world awaits!

    Mortal Immortality? The Transcendence Effect!

    We are embarking on a new project - hopefully with Y Combinator and or Sequoia Capital on helping people manage imminent loss and bereavement by bottling up a little of their love and cast it to the Oceans! (Well, technically that's our server's nickname.) We hope to, by extension gradually transform society's relationship with dying and death, so we can live more fulfilling lives... Listen in for more! Cheers!

    Bayern Munich, Pep Guardiola and Covid 19 - Thinking about the Vaccine and Mandates

    As a medical literacy professional I'm often invited to talk to people about the ongoing once in a century global pandemic. Here's a bit of a PSA (public service announcement) to help everyday people understand how vaccines work in general and how the Covid 19 vaccines in particular, work. We'll also touch on issues like leadership, education and the role of thinking as a key element of societal improvement & community development. Better Thinking, Better World!
