Oh yeah, and forgot about "creative desperation". Yeah. That's how u gonna see what others dont. We all know that, we come up with crazy ideas when desperate. Doesn't mean they all gonna be good... but you know, book about system thinking would help create good ideas. Just saying

Ah, this, "illumination rather than careful analysis" aproach drives me bit crazy. What about experience and thinking patterns? Curiosity? Scepticism? I know that's how u get ur AHA moment, but I would rather read book on those, than about AHA and illumination moments. I think I might have misjudged the book by its title (and I've read 2 genius books before this one... no wonder I'm #disappointed)

My advice to see what other's dont? Be sceptical and learn critical thinking, ask a million questions. There.
120 pages in, and no notes on this book. Just a bunch of anecdotes with people going "AHA!" at some point, and author's "dont worry, it will happen to you too when you won't expect it". I don't think I really like this book...

Fluff fluff fluff... After "The Creative Mindset" by Jeff Degraff this book seems like a lot of fluff. And Creative Mindset is shorter. And more thought provoking. And will set you on a path of "seeing what others dont". This one so far is just a lot of stories. No real substance. For me anyway- opinions are subjective thing.
