In the minds of geniuses, we find - once more - our own neglected thoughts.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Introduction

Our society places great value on the results of innovative thinking but too little on the genesis of our thoughts.

Our education system focuses on test results and memorization rather than teaching our children how to think most effectively.

To work smarter rather than harder, we must shift our thinking.

The School of Life's mission is to teach people how to lead more fulfilling and productive lives through developing emotional intelligence.

Through books, films, and classes, this organization co-founded by philosopher Alain de Botton, seeks to help people find connection and self-understanding.

How to Think More Effectively examines various strategies for focusing on purpose rather than productivity in order to complete tasks and innovate.
