Hey guys,
I wanted to share with you an article about our creative genius, how to bring it back.
How to re-think like a 5yo problem solving child.
I think the article is interesting for those who ask "How to bring value?"
We are born creative geniuses and the education system dumbs us down, according to NASA scientists
TL;DR
We've been trained to think in both convergent / divergent way, so when something seems to add value, we will always have a reason to think it won't work or someone already done it and we usually drop this awesome idea we had.
To be more adventurer, we need to bring back the child mindset we had, how to think like a problem seeker and solver.
How to see something in your hands, and imagine it in a different way than others do.
"Tomorrow, you take a table fork, turn your five-year-old on and come up with 25 or 30 ideas on how to improve on the table fork."

A simple article but which defines how to perceive a need or how to create a need.
