Also to make the best use of Creator Studio and its Provocative thinking methods a person needs a positive open minded attitude toward creative thinking. An attitude that applies the following convictions.
When doing creative thinking I will:
· Postpone evaluating and passing judgment on my ideas until a later time.
· Create ideas and record them, whatever they may be.
· Recognize my ideas as possible solutions or stepping stones to possible solutions.
· Recognize that any solution I think of may be just one among many possible solutions.
· Shift my perspective repeatedly to create new ideas and explore alternative possible solutions.
This positive open minded attitude frees the mind to create ideas and explore ideas without the burden of being practical at the same time. The time for evaluating and judging ideas, and for being practical is after the creative thinking has been done.
