A number of stimulating books in psychology can provide insights and inspiration for developing creative thinking. For example, in her NY Times article The Power of Concentration, Maria Konnikova reports on a University of Washington study on the effects of meditation training on multitasking. She is author of Mastermind: How to Think Like Sherlock Holmes. According to some research, we can only do or cognitively focus on one thing at a time. That is one of the themes of the PBS presentation based on the book Super Brain, by Rudolph E. Tanzi and Deepak Chopra.

Pain, rejection, loneliness, abandonment are some of the many things that couples feel when struggling in relationships.
It’s difficult indeed to ignore such emotions, especially when they become a pattern. Many of us are unaware of their root cause and that the key to having a truthful, loving relationship with our partner is to mirror the nurturing relationship we have with our inner child.

Since gratitude is the very currency of human relationship, enlightened leaders know that cultivating it is a key practice in their roles as leaders.
