About the Book

Everyone has, at one time or another, experienced a "flash" of inspiration, or been on a roll when everything seems to go right, or found a better way of doing something we have been doing for years. For most, these things are all too infrequent, but neurological experts believe they have identified how and why these experiences occur. Drawing on this research, Harry Alder shows how we can perform at peak levels and consistently succeed in areas which would once have seemed impossible. His guide is intended to inspire anyone to understand the creative process and shows that, through self-analysis, one can: achieve more with little effort; increase levels of inspiration and creativity; experience prolonged periods of peak performance; add a vital new dimension to one's intellectual and emotional intelligence; share some of the thinking patterns of the world's greatest achievers; take the hit and miss element out of personal achievement; and know the pleasure of fulfilling the most important goal in one's life.
