  • Think Like Bill Gates - Five Ways to Encourage Creative Thinking
    Think Like Bill Gates - Five Ways to Encourage Creative Thinking . The strategies we've outlined above work best in an atmosphere of positivity and possibility. The following ideas may help you to establish the best conditions for creativity:
    Believe in yourself . Have faith that great ideas will come! Try techniques such as Visualization  and positive affirmations  to keep your spirits high.
    Find time for downtime. Some of the best ideas appear when you're thinking about something else – or not really thinking at all: maybe walking, listening to music, or playing with your kids.
    Rest, relaxation and sleep  are all important for recharging your creative batteries. But make sure that you have a notepad or device handy for capturing your brilliant thoughts, whatever you're doing!
    Vary your environment. Changing your setting can transform your thinking, and offer new sources of inspiration – we've already mentioned the power of a country walk for the inventor George de Mestral.
    Hold your meeting in a nearby coffee shop instead of the conference room in your office, or ask your people to join you for an "ideas walk " in the park.
    Conquer distractions . When you're focused on generating ideas, and feel "in the zone " – stay there! Do your thinking in a place where it's easy and enjoyable to work.
    Spend some time with your phone and laptop turned off and your door closed, so that nothing – and no one – disrupts your train of thought.
    Have fun!  Playfulness and humor are essential ingredients of creativity, especially if you're exploring new ideas with a team. When the pressure's on to come up with something radical, make sure that you're still relaxed and open-minded enough for the very best ideas to emerge.

  • Think Like Bill Gates - Power of New Ideas
    Think Like Bill Gates - Power of New Ideas. You don't have to be "artistic" to be creative. Everyone can learn to generate bold, groundbreaking ideas by adopting a creative approach and applying the best thinking tools.
    There are three key approaches to generating new ideas:
    Breaking old thinking patterns.
    Making new connections.
    Getting fresh perspectives.
    Here is what I'm trying to say in this episode. Breaking Old Thinking Patterns
    We can all get stuck in certain "tracks" of thought. They may be so comfortable that we don't even realize that they're holding us back! So, to have fresh ideas, we need to break away from established patterns of thought and start to see new paths ahead.
    Here are some of the best ways to do it:
    A.
    Challenge Your Assumptions
    You likely bring a set of assumptions to each and every situation. Many of them may turn out to be true, but challenging your preconceptions can also open up some exciting possibilities.
    B. Rephrase the Problem
    The way you define or frame your problem can limit your creativity. If you describe the issue you're trying to solve in a different way or look at it from a different angle, new solutions can emerge.
    C. Think in Reverse
    If you're finding it difficult to think of a new approach, try turning the problem upside-down!
    Flip the question and explore the exact opposite of what you want to achieve. This can present you with innovative ways to tackle the real issue.
    D. Mix Your Media
    Radical ideas can arise from tackling problems in unusual ways. A great way to do this is to apply different types of creativity – don't just talk or write about your plans, explore them through music, painting, photography, sculpture… whatever enables you to express yourself. Fresh thinking can emerge when you let your creative juices flow!
    2. Making New Connections
    Another way to generate new ideas is to make new and unexpected connections. Some of the best ideas seem to occur almost by chance – you see or hear something unconnected with the situation you're trying to resolve, and a lightbulb goes on in your head!
    Try some of the following strategies for forging creative connections:
    Random words. Pick a word at random from any document, then look for novel associations between that word and your problem.
    For example, if you were exploring ways to reduce sick leave in your company, and your random word was "ball," you might hit on the idea of organizing a monthly softball game, to raise morale and motivate people to stay healthy.
    Picture prompts. Images can be a great way to inspire creative thinking. Pick any image, find a connection with your problem – however tenuous – and notice any new possibilities that open up.
    A picture of a giant redwood, for instance, might suggest new ways to organizes the teams and "branches" within your business.
    Objects of interest. How about asking your team members to bring a small object of their choice to your next ideas meet? You could generate new ideas by asking questions such as, "How is this object like the problem we're trying to solve?" or "How could we use this object to meet our challenge?"
    A stapler, say, might prompt you to consider whether people on your team are becoming disconnected. Maybe you could set up a new communications channel to "fasten" them back together?
    3. Find a Fresh Perspective to everything in life!

Good ideas come along all the time and help people solve minor problems in work and daily life. Great ideas appear a little less frequently and require a little more work to execute. Great ideas aren't necessarily the result of highly-paid think tanks or drug-induced vision quests in the desert. Often they are unexpected moments of inspiration that help keep the napkin companies in the business.

You need to give your brain the time and space to work for you. If you try each of these methods, you are bound to come up with a great idea or two. Make sure you record them and set a plan of accountability. The execution is up to you.

  • How to Come Up With Creative Ideas Like Bill Gates
    How to Come Up With Creative Ideas Like Bill Gates. Bill Gates is probably the most famous billionaire in the world. With a net worth in the tens of billions, his impact in the world of technology is unparalleled.
    Most everyone is familiar with his success in the business world and also his philanthropy.
    Most people would love to have success like Bill Gates; however there are very few who have cultivated the necessary habits.
    While mimicking some of Bill Gates’ habits probably won’t turn you into a multi-billionaire, it can help you accomplish some of your goals.
    So how can you adopt some of Bill Gates’ habits?
    Bill Gates is and has always been a voracious reader. In a recent Forbes interview, his father, William H. Gates Sr., revealed that his son was always an extreme bookwork. As a child, Gates Jr. devoured science fiction and even encyclopedias. Everywhere he went, he carried a book with him.
    Eventually, the elder Gates had to draw the line somewhere and insisted that his son could continue with his habit as long as he didn’t bring any books to the dinner table.
    Today, the younger Gates is still an avid book reader consuming everything from inspiring biographies to philosophical works to intellectual periodicals. However, Bill Gates Jr. now encourages others to pick up the reading habit. He frequently posts lists of his reading material to increase interest.
