How can creative thinking be enhanced?
Creative thinking can be enhanced by the following ways:
(i) Becoming more aware and sensitive in order to notice and respond to the feelings, sights, sounds and textures around.
(ii) Generating maximum amount of ideas or solutions to a given task, in order to increase the flow of thoughts and choosing the best out of them.
(iii) Using Osborn’s ‘brainstorming’ technique to increase the flexibility of ideas. It involves the idea of thinking freely, without any limitations or pre-conceptions.
(iv) Experience and practice leads to an independent thinking while making judgments.
(v) Engaging in activities that require the use of imagination and original thinking.
(vi) Getting a feedback on the proposed solutions and also thinking of solutions others may offer.
(vii) Giving the ideas a chance to incubate.
(viii) Drawing diagrams for easily understanding the solutions and visualising causes or consequences of all the solutions.
(ix) Resisting the temptation of getting immediate rewards.
(x) Being self-confident, positive and aware of all the defences concerned with the problem.
