Thursday, May 01, 2003 ( 12:08 PM ) Steve In my efforts to learn about creativity and apply it on a daily basis, I've found the following book to be very helpful: Applied Imagination by Alex F. Osborn The book is full of examples and ways to apply your imagination. He often presents an example or story that keeps the concept close to you. For example, when he talks about multiplication as a way to be more creative, he also shares the story of the first windshield wiper. The inventor originally conceived only one windshield wiper per car. Later he doubled the wipers -- two wipers became standard equipment on each windshield. I find that these stories help me remember the concept of multiplication and apply it to problems that I'm currently working on. # |
