Quotes

  • Soliloquios Literarioshas quoted5 years ago
    To center a challenge:

    Write it as a definite question, beginning “In what ways might I …?”

    Vary the wording of the challenge by substituting synonyms for key words.

    Stretch the challenge to see the broader perspective.

    Squeeze the challenge to see the narrow perspective.

    (a) Divide it into subproblems.

    (b) Solve the subproblems.

    (c) Keep asking “how else?” and “why else?”

    After you decide what challenges are most interesting and likely to yield solid benefits, it is important to accept the challenge. To accept a challenge means to accept responsibility for generating ideas as possible solutions to the problem. The more you accept responsibility and dedicate yourself to generating ideas, the higher your probability of reaching an innovative solution
  • Soliloquios Literarioshas quoted5 years ago
