The Art of Possibility

Transforming Professional and Personal Life
by Benjamin Zander and Rosamund Zander | Penguin © 2000 · 210 pages

The Art of Possibility. This is a great book written by the dynamic duo Rosamund Stone Zander (family therapist and landscape painter) and her husband Benjamin Zander (conductor of the Boston Philharmonic Orchestra and professor at the New England Conservatory of Music). Big Ideas include the fact that it’s all invented (so we might as well create an empowering story!), having grace as we own the risks we take, and giving yourself an A!


Life takes on shape and meaning when a person is able to transcend the barriers of personal survival and become a conduit for its vital energy.
Roz & Ben Zander

“This is a how-to book of an unusual kind. Unlike the genre of how-to books that offer strategies to surmount the hurdles of a competitive world and move out ahead, the objective of this book is to provide the reader the means to lift off from that world of struggle and sail into a vast universe of possibility. Our premise is that many of the circumstances that seem to block us in our daily lives may only appear to do so based on a framework of assumptions we carry with us. Draw a different frame around the same set of circumstances and new pathways come into view. Find the right framework and extraordinary accomplishment becomes an everyday experience. Each chapter of this book presents a different facet of this approach and describes a new practice for bringing possibility to life.”

The energy of these two uber-cool peeps is fantastic.

I was brought to tears of inspiration several times and I’m excited to share some of my favorite Big Ideas on how we can tap into the power of possibility!

Let’s jump in! :)
