6 Thinking Action Hats*

Aussie

Fun and Leisure Loving.

Australia is a nation at leisure. They are mad about sports too.

When I need to relax and have some fun. It is especially crucial when I am stress out.

British

Discipline and Rigid.

When there is a need to get work done methodically and systematically in the midst of chaos and confusion.

Sundanese

Opportunistic.

When there is a need to be predatory in seizing windows of opportunities rather than having the “Whatever will be, will be!” mentality.

Mongolian

Aggressive in overcoming.

When there is a need to bulldoze barriers to success rather than being discouraged and wallow in self-pity.

Bali

Gentle and in harmony.

When there is a need to be in meditative and reflective mood. An ounce of thought is worth a pound of thoughtless work.

Bangladeshi/Bengali

Tagore received the Nobel Prize for Literature. I was given a book written by an unknown Bengali writer even though I can’t read Bengali. They are literature proud.

When there is a need to break the writer’s block this will be the inspiring one.
