Think differently?
From the Creative Nudge, think differently

Think differently?

WITHOUT CREATIVITY, THERE WOULD BE NO PROGRESS. EDWARD DE BONO.

?

Learn and Unlearn as much as you can.

Remove patterns.

Often I find myself doing things a bit differently…. Misfit.... or creative?

  • Homework at school and school at home,
  • Conditioner before shampoo
  • Ordering just sides no main
  • Shower before exercise
  • Do less, and obsess (rather do more stress less)….

?

I just read ‘the creative nudge’ - it seems we tend to feel safe when people like our ideas or when the group agrees. We are conditioned to not be or feel different - its behavioural science.

For survival reasons it seems our brains likes consensus. scary.

?

Here is an interesting one.

Above is a diagram showing bullet holes on returning allied planes that encountered Nazi anti aircraft fire in WW2. After discussion, military authorities all agreed those areas should be reinforced. All except one. A Hungarian mathematician called Abraham. He pointed out that this was the damage to the planes that made it home.

He argued that they should armour all the places that didn't have bullet holes, as that was where all the planes that didn't make it home were obviously hit.

He saved countless lives by not accepting the consensus view.

Don't give it into group pressure. if you don't agree, say so and if you do agree, question yourself why.
