Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 The voice in your head is not evil, but it does evil. It is powerful, but its power can be broken. And now more than ever in the history of our brainy species, we need to take it on and prevent it from preventing us from addressing the many challenges our world faces today.

#2 The voice of the inner critic is a familiar one. It’s the voice of doom, and it warns you of the dire consequences that will fall on you if you take the step you are contemplating. It makes you second-guess yourself.

#3 The voice is what messes with creative people the most. It hates change and risk, and it will do anything to prevent you from changing your mind or doing something new. You must learn to shut it down.

#4 I have been a creative person my whole life, and people have been paying me to make things for over thirty years. I have created many new ideas with millions of dollars at stake. I have had many briefings, deadlines, presentations, reviews, and awards.
