Creative Thinking Series
Reapplication is a fourth method to achieve creativity. This is a process of looking at something old with new eyes and asking how it can otherwise be used. For example, an old car tire might be used as a swing, a flower planter, or as a boat-guard attached to a pier. A fifth process involves a complete change of direction. Sometimes known as creative insight, it occurs when attention is shifted from one angle of a problem to another. Here we must focus on the goal which is to solve an identified problem, not to implement a particular solution. When one solution is not working, move to another. There should be no commitment to a particular path, only to a particular goal. —Submitted by Employee Development (05.06.09)
