I’ve always loved challenging the borders, the way things are done, and models of understanding as well as proving that better solutions exist. This book has given me a few more ways to expand my thought processes and I’m going to have fun playing with the “rules” because I’ve got plans to do some big things that will leave a legacy.

Good book to get insights about perception and decisions made on previous stories. It’s certainly a great concept to apply at work and in your personal life. Be the change.

Quite enjoyed it

The book explains how our thinking can be limited, gives a framework for extending our personal range, and gives practical examples for how and why this can be applied.

My best learning - if you care about a problem, may not be objective about it and therefore likely to be a part of the problem.

Frustratingly - the audiobook didn't have titles or descriptions for each chapter, making it hard to refer to past content. I ended up listing to most of the book twice just to find one quote!

Bonus points for the summary in the appendix (chapter 22)

A great book for reflecting on workplace conflict

This book is self revelatory and extremely interesting!

Learning trough stories and decoding belief systems is as powerful as meditating for 10 years in the Himalayas. Thank you a lot Dave for writing it and Dan for such a sensational delivery.

“Liminal Thinking" by Dave Gray is a remarkable book that offers readers a profound insight into the power of mindset transformation. Gray introduces the concept of liminal thinking, a framework that encourages individuals to embrace uncertainty, challenge their assumptions, and navigate the thresholds of change. This book is a valuable resource for anyone seeking personal or organizational growth.

Dave Gray's writing style is engaging and accessible, making complex concepts easy to understand. He uses real-life examples and anecdotes to illustrate how liminal thinking can bring about powerful shifts in perspective. Readers are taken on a journey that helps them recognize their own cognitive biases and habitual thought patterns, which can be major roadblocks to personal development.

One of the book's strengths is its practicality. Gray provides a clear roadmap for applying liminal thinking in various aspects of life, from personal relationships to professional endeavors. By encouraging readers to question their assumptions and explore new perspectives, he empowers them to break free from mental constraints and find innovative solutions to challenges.

What sets 'Liminal Thinking' apart is its adaptability. The concept can be applied not only to individual growth but also to organizational change. Gray emphasizes the importance of creating a culture of curiosity and openness within teams and companies, which can lead to improved problem-solving, collaboration, and innovation.

In conclusion, 'Liminal Thinking' is an excellent book with an impactful concept and model that can transform the way individuals and organizations approach change and growth. Dave Gray's writing is both insightful and practical, making this book a must-read for anyone looking to unlock their full potential and navigate the thresholds of transformation.

We all behave as the writer describes, if I can apply any one thing successfully from the thought processes explained then I do believe I could make a positive change to my working environment for all. Challenging yourself to look into yourself as potentially the reason that things are the way they are is a difficult concept but the mechanism to achieve that is explained in its most basic form, most definitely further reading required. Great read/listen.

Clear and thought provoking
