9. • Try a new approach: Rethink things creatively and logically.
Move on from we’ve-always-done-it-this-way.

problems effectively at work.
• Try new things: That you’ve thought is difficult or impossible.
Break your mental barrier about some ideology, esp. Religion
and food.
• Just because you’ve done things in a certain way in the past
doesn’t mean that you have to follow that way always.
Change your thinking 9
