Question
How can creative thinking be enhanced?

Answer

Strategies to enhance memory:
  1. Originality: Originality can be developed by practicing fluency, flexibility, habit of associative thinking, exploring linkages, and fusing distinct or remote idea.
  2. Use of Imagination: Engaging more frequently in activities which require use of imagination and original thinking rather than routine work according to interest and hobbies.
  3. Not to accept initial ideas: Never accepting the first ideas or solution. Many ideas die because we reject them thinking that the idea might be a silly idea i.e. we have to first generate a number of possible ideas or solutions, then select the best from among them.
  4. Getting feedback: Getting a feedback on the solutions we decide one from others who are less personally involved in the task.
  5. Chance to Incubate: Giving ideas the chance to incubate. Allowing time for incubation between production of ideas and the stage of evaluation of ideas may bring in the ‘Aha!’ experience.
  6. Diagram thinking: Sometimes ideas cluster like branches of a tree. It is useful to diagram our thinking so that we can follow each possible branch to its completion.
  7. Developing independent thinking: Developing independent thinking in making judgments, figuring out things without any help or resources.
  8. Self confident: To be self-confident and positive. Never undermine to your creative potential to experience the joy of your creation.
