How to Get a Great Idea
The guests had arrived, and the wine was warm. Once again, Id forgotten to refrigerate it. "Dont worry," a friend said, "I can chill it for you fight away."
Five minutes later she emerged from the kitchen with the wine perfectly cooled. Asked to reveal her secret, she said, "Easy. I poured the wine in a plastic bag and then dipped it in ice water. After a few minutes the wine was cold. The hard part was getting it back into bottle. I couldnt find a funnel (漏斗), so I made a cone with wax paper."
My guests applauded. "How wonderful if we could all be that clever," one remarked.
A decade of research has convinced me we can. What separates the average person from Edison, Picasso or even Shakespeare isnt creative capacity--its the ability to use that capacity by encouraging creative impulses and then acting upon them. Most of us seldom achieve our creative potential. I think I know why, and I can help unlock the reservoir of ideas hiding within every one of us.
One puzzle Ive watched students deal with is retrieving a Ping-Pong ball that has fallen to the bottom of a sealed, vertical drainpipe. The tools that they can use are either too short to reach the ball or too wide to fit into the pipe, which is also too narrow to reach into by hand. At last some students make the connection: drainpipe= water=floating. They pour water down the hole, and the ball floats to the top.
This and many other experiments suggest concrete ways of increasing creativity in all of us. Here are the best techniques.
Capture the fleeting. A good idea is like a rabbit. It runs by so fast that sometimes you see only its ears or tail. To capture it, you must be ready. Creative people are always ready to act, and that may ha the only difference between us and them.
