  1. Predictably creative?! Confusing creativity with problem solving or thinking or calculation.

    And best selling author is hawking another book? Meh.

  2. I got recommended this now. Huh. Interesting. I'd probably go for "Do things that don't interest you." It seems the most useful.

  3. This is such a shallow and capitlistic perspective on creativity…
    oh and people in countries that had been colonized don't need self-help from white old men…

  4. Grenny's tips for creative ideas

    Frame the problem at hand
    Obey your curiousity
    Do things that do not interest you
    Keep a shoebox to store your experiences
    Invite uncomfortable conversations
    Focus on creativity when it hits

  5. I completely agree.

  6. I'm trying to appreciate this video. But, if you really think hard about it, this video makes absolutely no sense. HBR fell off.

  7. Don’t mind if I do!

  8. 1st minute and 1st comment
