New skin
Getting into new habits of thinking and presenting topics of interest
A few weeks have passed, and I missed writing in my diary.
I wanted to change, to expand, to explore new ways of documenting my thinking process. Similar to snakes putting on new skins as they grow, I found I need to size up my posts as well. A slight variation nevertheless creates a unique perspective for me. Originally, I’ve written on random topics of interest, such as innovation, facilitation, biomimicry, creative thinking, technology, human centered design, and the power of small habits that change our mindset.
In the new skin I’m intending to wear, while still interested in similar topics, I’m creating series of posts that spread over weeks, instead of a single ones each time. This way, I’m able to tackle deep topics that might complete a book chapter, but continue to write in bite-size posts that keeps me and you committed, informed and also entertained.
I’m testing this new skin for flexibility and fit. I’d love for you to test it as well, and let me know if it fits, or doesn’t, so that we both learn and grow together.
For now, please chose as many topics as your interests from the list below or let me know of others on your mind.
- Learning from nature for business solutions (Biomimicry)
- Service Design and Design Thinking tools and methods
- Creative thinking and daily habits
- Design process and its applications
- Thinking differently (perspectives)
- Resilience and perseverance

- Divergent thinking and tools
- Decision making tools

Curious as always,
Thank you.
