The Skinny On Creativity
Thinking Outside The Box
No matter what you do or where you are in life, the ability to think creatively is crucial for your success and survival. The more you develop your skills at creative thinking, the more you’ll master your environment – whatever it may be.
Creative thinkers are all around you. People who juggle responsibilities and obligations. People who find ways to achieve a lot with minimum resources. People who use their talents to maximum effect. Creative thinking is the skill you need to overcome whatever stands between you and what you want to accomplish.
Creative thinkers will have an edge in the years ahead. Analytical thinking was once paramount, but now machines outperform most humans. But computers can’t imagine; electronics can’t think creatively. To compete and prosper, you need to develop and nurture your creativity.

Real Reviews
“It’s my angry belief that most self-help and education book writers get paid by the word. Three and four hundred page books that could have been done better in 50 pages. Not so with “The Skinny On” series. These books kick rears and take names. Using entertaining writing, stick figure drawings and a comic book style layout, they use simple stories to quickly convey valuable information. Highly recommended. Author Jim Randel has created one of the best, most interesting series I’ve seen in a very long time.”
