"Creative Bias" Recommended Preface: Enjoy the baptism of creativity
It’s the end of the year again, and if the corporate world also establishes a ranking list of representative words for the year, I think “creativity” will definitely be at the top! Because it is as popular and common as words such as “excellence”, “integration” or “innovation”, and they are all hot keywords often mentioned by bosses or managers.
Creativity is to connect some things together. By Jobs (opens in a new tab)
Everyone likes brilliant creativity, just as we appreciate Jobs (opens in a new tab) (Steve Jobs), Musk (opens in a new tab) (Elon Musk), marveled at their ingenuity and led the team to create the iPhone and Tesla electric cars. But do we really recognize creativity? Do you like endless creativity? Do you know how to tap into creative ideas?
Read “The Creativity Bias: Why do leaders always crave creativity, but end up rejecting it?” ](https://www.books.com.tw/exep/assp.php/vista/products/0010770973?utm_source=vista&utm_medium=ap-books&utm_content=recommend&utm_campaign=ap-201712)》After (opens in a new tab) that, I suddenly realized that in fact, we all have resistance to creativity. Because there are many uncertainties behind those creative ideas, when we feel hesitant, we will intuitively want to escape, and this is the hidden obstacle in the process of accepting creative ideas.
My work (opens in a new tab) aims to provide people with tools to disrupt their own and others resistance to the creative ideas that would otherwise improve the quality of their lives and make the world a better place.
It is true that not everyone is willing to embrace creativity, but there are more people who suffer from not knowing how to find creativity? Author Jennifer. Mueller (opens in a new tab) in “The Creativity Bias: Why do leaders always crave creativity, but end up rejecting it?” (opens in a new tab)” The book teaches you five ways to break yourself and help you get rid of your prejudice against creativity. These methods not only allow readers to maintain their love for new things, but are also feasible and practical, which is indeed valuable.
◎Step 1: First determine whether the idea you see is a familiar idea, a new idea that you have never been exposed to, or both. ◎Step 2: People are easily bound by inertial thinking. When we evaluate things, we must first spend time adjusting our mentality. ◎Step 3: Take a deep breath, allow yourself to accept the unknown, and then act according to your intuition. ◎Step 4: When evaluating ideas, we are always used to finding problems. At this stage, you must move from problem-finding to problem-solving mode, guiding the process rather than demanding results. ◎Step 5: If none of the above steps can break your fixed thinking, you have to cooperate with people with different mindsets who are unfettered and unfettered to achieve the ideal balance.
If you are interested in getting a glimpse of the secrets of creativity, I recommend you to read “[The Bias of Creativity: Why do leaders always crave creativity, but in the end reject it?” )“Start this magical journey. Zero your thoughts, allow yourself to accept the unknown, and then—enjoy the baptism of creativity together!
