Motivational Mondays: Conversations with Leaders

Unlocking Non-Obvious Thinking (Feat. Rohit Bhargava)


Listen Later

In this Motivational Mondays episode, we dive into the art of non-obvious thinking with Rohit Bhargava, best-selling author and marketing expert. Having spent years in the creative industry, Rohit noticed how often "creative" ideas fell flat, leading him to champion the importance of embracing the non-obvious. 

Rohit emphasizes how creativity often involves embracing both small and big risks. He shares how the concept of "danger" can push you out of complacency, whether it's as simple as navigating without GPS or tackling a daring new challenge. By taking these risks, even minor ones, you awaken your creative side and break free from mindless routines. The small discomfort of making a left turn Siri didn't suggest can often lead to personal growth and more confident decision-making.

In this digital age, AI looms large in conversations about creativity. Rohit and Ben explored using AI as a "creative partner" when writing their book. Instead of allowing AI to write for them, they used it as a critical editor, leveraging its capabilities to point out weaknesses in their writing. This method enhanced their work without losing their distinct voice.

This week, you’ll learn why we should embrace danger as a part of our personal development, the power of AI to help us set parameters, and the importance of understanding your own personal brand.
