Nothing is Written

The Ourhouse Weblog: Nothing is Written

Nothing is Written Do you remember the scene in Lawrence of Arabia when a man is left behind overnight, during the unforgiving journey across the desert? Omar Sharif says it would be madness to return for him, it would lead his would-be rescuer to certain death under the unforgiving sun. It is Written, he says. Lawrence ignores this advice and heroically returns, uttering the words Nothing is Written.

Johnny, as usual, posting something intelligent and provoking. His suggestion of using applied improvisation is interesting in that it is something he has briefly shown me and it is wonderful at opening up different ways of thinking and approaching subjects - ideal for creativity in my opinion and lots of other things according to the Applied Improvisation Network . Personally I think in business people tend to be too uptight about using 'alternative' ways of approaching things. Techniques such as improv can be great fun, and shock horror you can enjoy yourself whilst still gaining significant ideas and possibly a 'business' advantage.

You could certainly do worse than get John to come visit...
