EQ4U UPDATE – OCTOBER 2023

This month’s theme is about choosing your battles and audacious thinking. Only invest time, energy, and effort in unorthodox and original thinking to resolve issues where you have the potential to make a positive difference. And if informed, sagacious judgement establishes that you are powerless or incapable of stopping something, don’t waste your time trying.
 
‘Don’t get in front of a ball rolling down the hill.
JAMES PATTERSON
 
‘Vertical thinking is digging the same hole deeper. Lateral thinking is trying again elsewhere.’
EDWARD de BONO
 
Tact in audacity consists in knowing how far we may go too far.’
JEAN COCTEAU
