The art of thinking differently

Storytelling, metaphors and perspectives that inspire.

Look again

You may know “One for sorrow, two for joy…” The rhyme continues, but the big shift is from one to two, from negative to positive. Thinking differently is hard, so we celebrate that first move. Like a lucky double on the dice, not two magpies, but Double Magpie.

Different perspectives, ideas, and options are always there, but seeing them is the challenge. Thinking differently becomes the art of looking twice, a double take too.
