The Seer

by David Robinson

This is a book about learning to see. Not many people see. Most people merely look. Just as most people hear but they do not listen, most people look but they do not see. Their thinking gets in the way of their seeing. Seeing has much more to do with stories than it does with eyes.

Entrepreneurs and artists share this trait: in order to master their craft, in order to generate and innovate, they must learn to see again. And, in order to see, they must once again understand the power of their words; they must learn to see beyond their story. They must learn to flip their assumptions and let go of what they think they know. Only then does the field of opportuntiy become visible.

This is not a book that you actually finish reading. It is a slow read, because you need to do the exercises at the end of each recognition, without them, the book is useless. Be diligent and you will move along!

5 stars in beginning, mind altering book. So. Many. Notes. Around 2/3rds in, Eit starts to slow down and have less ‘meat on the bone’. Must read though still!! Now figuring out how to apply :)
