think out of the box

                     

                       
                             APPROACH PROBLEMS IN NEW AND INNOVATIVE WAY


Here are some ways to bring out your out-of-the box thinking skills.

1. Visualize and draw your problems.

Take a white paper and start drawing your problems in any way you wanted. it is not necessary for your drawing to look beautiful and full of colors. Try to include all the people and things that are related to your problem. When you do like this, indirectly this will boost creative thinking.
after you drew your picture, try not to see it in the same angel. What i meant here is turn it upside down or flipped it. This may give you some suggestions. It will also break your left brains logical way of approaching problems.

2. Read something daily.

Knowledge will help you see the problems in new way and lead you to different path. 
Try reading something that you never read before this. If you like romantic novels, try reading mystery novels. If you love to read crime stories,try read fantasy stories. These stories will stimulate your mentality. When you are reading try to visualize the story and connect it with your daily life problems. Learn how the author deal with solve these problems. 

Apart from novels, try reading something that is not your field of study. All industries almost face similar problems but the way they deal with the problems are quite different. Try read their problems and ways to solve it, then try to make connections with your own problems.

3. Try asking a child for advice

You may wonder, why should ask a child for a solution. All we all know, a child's world is full of creativity and imagination. Their mind is always fresh even they active for the all day. When you give a paper to child they will not just draw on the paper and leave it. First they will draw then they will make anything out if it such paper ball. They can think in a different way. So try asking for a solution from a child. they may give you a hint to solve the problems.  At the same time, don't make a step just because a child told you so.

4. Try taking shower

This idea is a kinda weird but it always works for me. As far as i know it work to a lot of people. I don't the exact reason why it can boost our thinking but what matters is it works.
I think it maybe because of the cold water that can chill you out. Most of the time i get new idea after i take my shower.
