Free Your Inner Genie! by Mitchell Ditkoff
The creative process has been studied for decades by truckloads of psychologists, social scientists, and business leaders looking to cut through the Gordian knot of human behavior and understand the origins of brilliance. The research has resulted in the formulation of more models than any sane person would ever hope to read - all in a noble attempt to demystify creativity for "the rest of us." Well then, is there room for yet another model? Yes there is, especially the following one - which is not only simple, clear, and elegant - but also mine. (Hey, you've read this far already. Another three minutes isn't gonna kill you.) The map, of course is never the territory, so don't expect the five-step model below to transport you nano-secondly to the holy land of creativity. Still, it will help you get your creative juices flowing. Or, if not that, provide you with some simple instructions on how to order the world's greatest deck of innovation-sparking cards.
