It's Not About the Shark
It's Not About the Shark opens the door to the
groundbreaking science of solutions by turning problems―and how
we solve them―upside down. When we have a problem, most of us
zero in, take it apart, and focus until we have it solved. David
Niven shows us that focusing on the problem is exactly the wrong
way to find an answer. Putting problems at the center of our
thoughts shuts down our creative abilities, depletes stamina, and
feeds insecurities.
