A great book by Todd Henry.

My new puppy is a creative thinker in her new crate/doghouse... an "in the box" thinker?

A testament that poverty is not an excuse to creative thinking-- Street kids doing their very own dragon dance performance.

Design Thinking, through the acknowledgment of 'the map in not the territory', works to insure that only the most valuable generalizations are made from specific experiences, that only the most valuable differences are made in our representations, and that only the most valuable selections of the world are included.

Design Thinking transcends the language of cross-cultural visual communication.

Design Thinking is the thinking framework of cross-cultural visual communication.

Playfulness is essential to creativity and creative thinking. Great ideas rarely come to those who scowl!

Design Thinking is expressed in design operations which through reflection become design thinking.

Problems are really just squiggly lines that show up when we're expecting straight ones. Find the straight lines to find your next steps.

One Squiggly Line is a visual thinking business that uses pictures to make things simple so people can understand, decide, and move to action more quickly.

Let simple thoughts move beyond the box. While thinking inside the box - it's a black / white world...Outside the box...a myriad of colors flourish with creative thinking.

Design Thinking has its essence in many disciplines and offers a universal bond between them.

Design Thinking is creativity with a direction.

Design Thinking works to reduce the forces of disintegration & increase the forces of integration.

Design Thinking is nested within deeper design thinking.

From ideation to evaluation to solution. When the thinking and decision process is made visual, even those not present for the discussion understand how decisions were made.

Design Thinking is best expressed through the power of storytelling.

Creative insights and actions, as well as practical goals and plans, all begin with a dream. Visualize it richly and colorfully!

We made a trip to Barnes and Noble... my favorite bookstore.. Hope it survives a bit longer (as Borders we found out is closing....)......

This was a super-cool book I found to help one with improving creative thinking and being innovative. I am still looking through it. It's jam packed full of interesting ideas. I picked this up in hopes I will use some of these tips/strategies/exercises with students in India when I do some college interaction sessions.

The book is for sale by clicking here - astore.amazon.com/authenticjourneys-20/detail/1580087736

I have already done some sessions on motivation and goal setting - see a video of my experience at Jai Bharath College. In the video, I talk about the session I did and some cross-cultural observations. www.youtube.com/watch?v=wWumLxnhDlk

Visuals to help flesh out the house and castle metaphors. You just have to ask the right questions: What are we afraid of in the basement? Who is our knight in shining armor?

Design Thinking is the unity in the diversity of cross-cultural visual communication.

Always a muse, never just a dog.

Design Thinking is built upon mature 'perception management'.

Beginnings are always messy.

~ John Galsworthy​

Creativity is messy sometimes. Doing something that's never been done before takes a lot of experimentation. Sometimes things work out, sometimes they don't. Highly creative people are not bothered by the messiness because they know the messiness leads to great inspiration and discoveries. When faced with challenges, allowing things to get a little messy can result in insightful, inspired solutions.

People take the longest possible paths, digress to numerous dead ends​, and make all kinds of mistakes. Then historians come along and write summaries of this messy, nonlinear process and make it appear like a simple, straight line.

~ Dean Kamen​

Design Thinking is a framework within which various techniques are uses including the essential skill of Edward de Bono's lateral thinking techniques.

Design Thinking understands the power of 'the space between things'.

Design Thinking is an engine to everyday progress.

Design Thinking is a road that has many 'up-ramps' which form bridges across our everyday limitations.

Design Thinking moves us from one level of awareness to another.

Design Thinking works best when one has a 'prepared mind'.

Design Thinking results in design for emotions.

Design Thinking has a process that is visualized in many individual ways.

Design Thinking results in 'valuable' outcomes.

Design Thinking progresses through the use of feedback loops.

Design Thinking moves as swiftly & smoothly as a metaphorical spider on a concept net.

Design Thinking influences extends beyond our current areas of learning.

Design Thinking is most mature when it works to fight the 'self-persisting I, me & my'.

Professional Development workshops

Curiosity is one key trait of creative people and creative thinking. To increase your own creativity, be curious and ask lots of questions.

Design Thinking moves us from where we are to where we want to be.
