Hidden Ways To Unlock Your Innovation
Chapter 1:
Two Types Of Imagination For Creativity
Synopsis
What are your goals, your jobs, and your hobbies? Can you determine how creation plays a role in that? Do you know that there are 2 different kinds of imagination that play a role in creativity?
What Are The 2 Forms Of Imagination?
Creative Imagination
Creative imagination, which lies on the far side of our logical mind and our ego, is where all genuinely new ideas derive from. When a scientist devises something the globe has never seen before, he's using creative imagination. Consider it as new clay.
Thomas Alva Edison, Alexander Bell, and Elmer Gates were splendid inventors who learned to tap into creative imagination. Mr. Thomas Edison, for instance, was reported as having tested more than ten thousand ideas for his electric-light bulb using his synthetic imagination alone, and they all failed. It was only when he tapped into his creative imagination that he carried off the perfect electric-light bulb.
Synthetic Imagination
What is this synthetic imagination? This is the imagination delivered of education and experience. You apply your mind to alter things around, view them from another angle, or rearrange existing stuff to form something “new”. But nothing really new ever came from synthetic imagination.
How much of what you accomplish has never been witnessed before (by you, at any rate)? When you author a fresh book, are you regrouping stories or legends you’ve seen before, substituting characters, hacking and exchanging? When you write a new musical composition, are you truly only changing one of your preferred childhood songs? When you do a fresh marketing campaign, are you simply placing your own spin on a successful campaign already used by some other company?
Most modern creative thinking books available are in reality centering on your synthetic imagination. But there's nothing inappropriate about this; as a matter of fact it's a critical step. An original idea frequently needs to be forged by education, reasoning, and experience in order to forge a finished product.
Take the design of the cover of this book, for example (hopefully you're reading a legal copy that has the cover). It started out as an original idea in my head, as the new clay of creation. I started to apply my synthetic imagination to forge the clay. As I started to transfer the idea out of my brain into my computer, I used my graphic skills to cut it down to what is conceivable with current technology. I formed the vague idea by adding together colors according to existent color theory. I affected text and pictures into certain positions based on what I know of human computer interaction. It's only then it turns into a finished product.
Let me sidetrack a bit here. All thoughts, all goals, everything we would like to achieve starts out as an idea in our mental realms, and is forged by worldly hands. Anything humankind ever created started out as a thought. Anything humankind ever created was forged by worldly hands.
Now let’s look at applying the 2 forms of imagination.
Chapter 2:
How To Use Creative Imagination
Synopsis
So, how do you use this creative imagination? Let’s take a look.
Brining Forth Creative Imagination
Inventor Gates, bearer of over two hundred patents of invention, used to “sit for ideas”. He sat in his room, sound-proof and with moderated lighting, with pen and paper. Then he mulled over whatever he was working at, as much as he knows of the matter, and awaited ideas in the configuration of inspiration and intuitions to come out, and he started writing them all down.
Initially I supposed it sounded eerie, like some Ouija board, but I recognized this was how many individuals in the creative fields of art, authoring, design, and so forth work, whether they recognize it by name or not.
Allow me to explain more. Inspiration issues forth from beyond the mind, maybe from your subconscious mind. It dashes into the conscious mind when it's ready to receive.
This works still better when the mind is excited. There is a list of 10 stimuli, listed in order of descending potency.
1. Want for intimate expression
2. Love
3. Blazing want of fame, power, or profit
4. Music
5. Friendly relationship
