Bottom-up Organizing for Brilliant Minds
Maybe your mind fills up fast with details, connections, and flashes of ideas. It's hard to organize your space, manage your time, start big projects, or express your thoughts succinctly. Sometimes you feel your work is inefficient; other times it feels out of control, overwhelming, or chaotic. You may refer to yourself as disorganized, and others may too.
But there's a different way to view what's happening; a different way to view yourself. You may be a bottom-up organizer; someone who needs to create organization starting with the details. Learning to organize in this way allows you to create the structure you need to fit the task at hand and make a plan for moving forward.
ThoughtGathering™ was built for exactly that. It’s a methodology developed over 20 years of clinical work with people who are smart, creative, and ready to find their way. It is not a tool or an organizer, but instead, an understanding of how organization works in any context, allowing you to use it when you need to. Once you have the skill of bottom-up organizing, it’s yours. It goes with you everywhere.
The flagship course, ThoughtGathering™ Foundations, walks you through that process over six weeks, covering four areas where bottom-up thinkers tend to get stuck: your materials, your time, your communication, and your ideas. You’ll come out the other side with a new relationship to all of them.
“I’ve been using the hell out of the organizational skills you helped me develop.”
