Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci (15 April 1452 – 2 May 1519) was an Italian polymath,

painter, sculptor, architect, musician, mathematician, engineer, inventor,

anatomist, geologist, cartographer, botanist, and writer. He is widely considered to be

iced 7 Da Vincian Principles

Why should you think like him?It’s a good question that comes with a good answer!Because you can tickle your everyday genius using those simple and effective techniques that are rooted in the age of enlightenment.

1Curiosity—Curiosità

Leonardo Da Vinci, just like a child, was unimpeachably curious. He was curious about everything, trying to associate truths and beauty. With the energy and receptivity of a child, you will easily develop natural curiosity and probably reawaken your genius.

Independent Thinking Dimostrazione

We experience the world around us through the 5 senses: sight, smell, touch, sound and taste. Continual refinement of your senses helps to clarify your experiences.

Dolce far niente –Sensazione

Learn to savour your senses and to be a

good listener. Always appreciate the beauty

around you by listening to music, writing poetry,

appreciating art, or thoughtfully tasting your

wine as you sip on it.

Embrace Ambiguity—Sfumato4Treat stress as a catalyst. Often ambiguous, stressful or even traumatic events can have a lasting effect on an individual.

To see your genius, you must be of both brains. This brings us to mind mapping, an approach used to organise ideas using the 2 hemispheres of the brain by blending logic and imagination.

Cultivate Grace, Fitness, and Poise

Corporalita

The greatest sensations in our history did not only cultivate their genius but enjoyed a resplendent physique as well. They took care of their mind-body connections and worked

intensely to develop “grace, fitness, and poise.”

Discover your Life’s Vane of Connections—Connessione

In your creative process, always keep in mind that everything is affiliated to another. Have a sketch of your dream; dig into your goals, clarify core values, assess reality, look out for connections, and strategise wisely for change.
