How To Be More Creative
Are there things you can do to be more creative? Yes, many things, starting with your decision to simply start questioning the way things are and looking at other possibilities. This can mean asking some pretty silly questions, but that’s okay. Sometimes the most logical and appropriate innovations start out that way.
For example, an owner of a bookstore might ask, “Why do we need customers?” Though it seems obvious enough, he should explore the answer, which is likely, “Because they are where we get the money.” Is that the only place to get the money? He might do some research and find that people have made a lot of money online giving away free ebooks with affiliate ads in them. Is there a way to do this in a regular bookstore? Ask those crazy questions.
