My first book -Foresight Infused Strategy - Now Available for Free
Two things
Hello all,
It’s been a while again; some health issues got in the way. It is true that as you grow older, your mental belief in who you are and what you can do remains pretty much the same. Until, that is, your body reminds you that it shapes your futures too and that you now need to pay attention to it. This happened in February and after several tests and scans, I am getting things in order (almost). Nothing terribly serious but combined it does require me to increase my daily exercise, sit properly on the sofa, and maintain regular visits to the gym, physio and osteopath. Such is life as they say.
The two things to tell you follows.
First is that I’m taking my book off Amazon to avoid having to deal with the US tax system now I no longer have an ABN (Australian Business Number). It’s still there, and the digital version is not priced at $US2.99 until I take if off sometime this week and add it to this site for free. The hard copy will also reduce in price shortly, once I’ve organised an alternative system based here in Australia. Then, the book in both forms will be available for free.
The second is my new book is now titled: Imagining our Futures - The power of worldviews and assumptions. I’ve been working on restructuring the book and adding some new sections, the writing of which are still underway - of course that remains my continuing excuse.
I will post my chapters here as I finished them in a separate section and email you when new chapters are available. The first one What, Why and How was derailed for a time by the health issues, but I’m returning to it now. I want to do this to keep me accountable to you - I do get a bit distracted by my daughter’s upcoming wedding and the sale of our house this year at times though.
One thing I am thinking about though, which is almost heresy to write, is whether or not my previous focus on foresight in the core of the book. I am suspecting strongly that it is worldviews that shape everything else and at the core, including our ability to surface our foresight capacities which is, in a way, secondary. This upsets me a bit, given my past work and writings, but I have always been open to changing my mind and I never dismiss new pathways until I’ve tested them - which is what I’m doing now.
More to come soon when I’ve sorted out my brain. And thanks for hanging in there.
