Chapter 4 walk a different path

If you change your thinking, you will discover a different world and get out of the lonely circle.When you ask to change yourself, you are actually on track to find positive energy, which shows that you are keeping up with the pace of development. Many of us are walking the path that others have walked or are walking, and have an instinctive fear of other paths.To take a path no one else has taken requires exploration, risk, and possible failure.Most people are unwilling to take risks and only want to be safe, so they are only willing to follow others, and follow the path walked by others or even generations.It's safe to be so stable, but the big achievements will never belong to them.

Looking at the great people in history, which one of them has not stepped out of the shackles of stereotyped thinking?To achieve stalwart achievements, you must be different from yourself.To dare to be the first, you don't have to follow the same path as others. There is such a picture, there is a school of fish on it, most of the fish are swimming in one direction, only one fish is swimming in the opposite direction.The title of this painting is "Change Direction, You Are Number One". Yes, when others are working in one direction, if you can find a new blue ocean, then you will naturally become a leader in another field.

A new way of thinking allows you to use other people's money to make money; a new trick allows you to surprise yourself and change from a poor person to a rich person.In the fierce market competition, if an enterprise wants to rise rapidly, it needs to find its own new world; in the same fierce social competition, if an individual wants to achieve the best development, he also needs to break the rules and find his own blue ocean. The human mind has great energy.Any innovation is a gift of thinking.The most wonderful thing in the world is the flower of thinking.Thinking is the "drilling machine" of talent, and thinking is the premise of creation.Therefore, concentrating on thinking is always favored by successful people.

"Read a lot without thinking, you will feel that you know a lot, and when you read and think more, you will clearly see that you know very little." This is the philosopher Voltaire's insight. Spending half of the time on thinking and half on action is undoubtedly the way to success for talents.It is difficult for those who do not know how to use the "drilling machine of talent" of thinking to dig out rich wisdom mines; those who are not good at thinking cannot draw inferences from one instance, comprehend by analogy, and enjoy the fun of innovation.The key to winning everything and embracing success lies in whether you can think positively, continuously, and scientifically.

In work, to overcome difficulties and achieve ideal results, careful consideration is an indispensable condition.Thinking has an irreplaceable function in scientific and artistic creation, in planning schemes, product design, business operations, and in the construction of theoretical systems. Scientific thinking is a unique ability of human beings.Thinking has intrinsic qualities such as expansiveness, depth, independence, flexibility, agility, and criticality. It plays an important role in the process of understanding the world, and it also plays an important role in the process of transforming the world.Thinking is the mother of scientific and artistic creation.The crystallization of thinking - "Golden Ideas" - can save a company and revitalize a country.It is a magic carving knife to shape the world and a great lever to change the world.

All innovations, inventions, ideas, and propositions in the world are products of thinking.Scientific thinking has created a colorful world and promoted the evolution of civilization. Innovation doesn't require a genius.Innovation is just about finding new ways to improve.Success in anything comes from finding ways to do things better. Where there is a will, there is a way. This is the foundation of innovative thinking.Conventional thinking is the number one enemy of innovative and successful plans.Traditional thinking freezes your mind, hinders your progress, and interferes with developing the creative abilities you really need.

Here's how to develop innovative thinking: (1) Be open to all kinds of ideas.Let go of the mental constraints of "it won't work", "it can't be done", "it's useless", "that's stupid". (2) There must be an experimental spirit.Abolish the fixed routine, find new restaurants, new books, new theaters and new friends, or take a different route to work, or take a different vacation than usual, or do something this weekend. Something different from before, etc. (3) Take the initiative to move forward, not back.Successful people like to ask: "How can I do better?"

(4) To understand that a little progress is a kind of gain.The greatest success is reserved for people with the I can make things better attitude. (5) To cater to the preferences of consumers. (6) To seize investment opportunities. (7) Ideas are the fruit of thought, but are only valuable when properly managed and thoroughly implemented. (8) Don't let the idea fly away, but write it down at any time. (9) Continue to develop and refine your ideas. (10) Every inspiration is a new idea. (11) Don't easily let go of accidental phenomena. (12) Don't underestimate your unintentional ideas.
