GENIUS of my style
Some are born geniuses, some are not. Whether you were born a genius or not, we all can attain the qualification of we just learn to think as one. I have put together some key point from the mindsets of geniuses including myself (hehehe) for you.
· Look at problems in many different ways and find new perspective that no one else has taken (or no one else has publicized). Often reconstruct the problem to become a new one
· Visualize: Formulate the problem in many different ways including using diagrams. Visualize solutions and quit relying on words and numbers only.
· Produce: A distinctive characteristic of genius is productivity. Either you produce great works or bad ones…just produce. Reality is either way you’ll be great. Never be afraid to fail or produce mediocre in order to arrive at excellence.
· Make combinations: Combine and recombine ideas, images and thoughts in different combinations no matter how incongruent or unusual.
· Form relationships: Make connections between dissimilar subjects. Who would have thought paper would make very good mould when combined with adhesives after a process. It is called paper Mache.
· Think in opposites. Truly if you hold opposites together then you suspend your thought (logic) your mind moves to a new level. Suspending logic may allow your mind to create a new form.
· Think metaphorically. Metaphor is a sign of genius. It is believed that the individual who had the capacity to perceive resemblances between two separate areas of existence and link them together was a person of special gifts.
· Prepare yourself for chance. Whenever we attempt to do something and fail, sometimes we end up with something else. That is just the principle of creative accident. Failure can be a productive process if we don’t focus on it as an unproductive result. If instead, we analyze the process, its components and how you can change them to arrive at other results. Don’t’ ask “why have I failed?” but rather ask “what have I done and what can I do better?”
As much as intelligence can be improved upon, we can become smarter day in – day out, then, though we may not be born geniuses we can be perceived as one…we can become one. Yes! You are a GENIUS.
