Flip Thinking: The Life-Changing Art of Turning Problems into Opportunities

Imagine this: You’ve got a great idea, and all you hear are the yes-buts.

“Yes, but that’s been tried before, and it didn’t work.”
“Yes, but shouldn’t we just let it sit down for a even as?”
“Yes, but what if it doesn’t work?”

Published in English for the first time, this international bestseller introduces the power of omdenken—or flip thinking—to turn out to be stuck-in-the-mud, pessimistic thought into an inventive, curious mindset, so you’ll stop saying “yes, but” to life, and start saying “yes, and.”

In this riveting book, Berthold Gunster presents fifteen strategies to turn out to be your thoughts away from limitations and negativities and towards possibilities and opportunities. From disrupting (turn all of the rules upside down) to flaunting (play up what you wish to have to hide), from importing (get the enemy on board) to amplifying (do more of what works), Gunster’s strategies and stories will have you approaching even the most challenging problems—whether an annoying neighbor or an indignant colleague or an unhappy partner—in a whole new way.
