Making Innovation A Way Of Life: Fill & Download for Free

Best place to start is journaling. Once a day, for about 20 minutes, brainstorm. Just allow ideas to come into your mind, and write them down in a tablet.Carry your tablet with you, so if you have a spur-of-the-moment idea, you can write it down without forgetting it.As you encounter obstacles in your day-to-day life, ask yourself, "is there a way I can make this problem go away?" If you have an idea for an answer, write it down. Many good, innovative ideas come from solving a problem or removing an existing obstacle.As you talk to people, you can ask them about what problems they had that day. When they tell you, again think of a way to solve that problem. If you do, great!Hopefully, that helps you find a new and innovative idea! If you like my answer, please 'upvote' it below.

“Indians study hard and get MBA, may be buy Mercedes but lack creativity” Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak.Image Source : Link below ( India Today News )India Today News :“In a recent interview, Wozniak also said that he does not believe that there will be any big tech company or breakthrough in India similar to Google, Facebook or Apple. According to Woz India has just Infosys as an example of the big tech company and even that is not innovative. He does not expect Infosys to be in the league of global tech giants anytime soon.When asked to comment on tech innovation in India by the Economic Times, Wozniak said, "I am not an anthropologist and I don't know the culture of India well enough. I don't see those big advances in tech companies. What is the biggest tech company here, Infosys maybe? I just don't see that sort of thing coming out of Infosys and I have done keynotes for them three times."He pointed out that Indians lack creativity and that people in India aren't encouraged to pursue creative careers. "The culture here is one of success based upon academic excellence, studying, learning, practicing and having a good job and a great life”. For upper India, not the lower. I see two Indias. That's a lot like Singapore study, study, work hard and you get an MBA, you will have a Mercedes but where is the creativity? The creativity gets left out when your behavior is too predictable and structured, everyone is similar. Look at a small country like New Zealand, the writers, singers, athletes, singers, athletes, it's a whole different world," said Wozniak. “whatever he said is 100% true but we Indians are not able to understand the situation .what is the use of such education which is based on rote learning , all Indians just think purpose of education is getting a good job and huge amounts of money BUT purpose of education should be uplifting ourselves , learning and applying that to create new things and ultimately making us as a good human being rather than a money boggling machine .when i asked 1st class students what they want to become i got all sorts of answers ranging from scientist to pilot , all of them had different answers .when the same question was asked to class 12th students 8 out of 10 said prestigious college and then a good job , when asked what is good job all the 8 said better the salary better the job .EDITS : Wozniak is criticizing our education system and not the Indians .The comments insisted my mind to include these two cases too so that people are able to understand the cause better .Bill Gates : “India’s education system needs to be far better than it is today “: Times Of India newsSince he devotes so much time to India, does he feel that there are any specific factors holding the country back? "Most trends are positive, but my biggest disappointment when it comes to India is the education system. It should be far better. I don't want to be critical, but I do want to create higher expectations about it."An Interaction with Dr. HC Verma :Q: What do you think are the reasons and results of more and more people being oriented towards the applied subjects rather than pure sciences?A: There are two things in life: Joy and Money. If you feel the true joy in something then money becomes insignificant to you. But if you can’t find that joy then money becomes everything to you! The problem with our system is that Science is not presented in a way so that a student can really feel the joy in it. So people try to run after money. They forget their significance as a human and try to feel safe by becoming a tiny part of a giant machine. Almost every student after the JEE examination tries to figure out which combination of an IIT and a branch can give him the best job using the previous records. I find this practice extremely mechanical. I find a loss of human spirit in this whole story. If it is a particular branch of a particular IIT that is going to give you something significant then what is your own endowment as a human?Britishers created an education system so that they could get employees for their expanding industries (majorly for clerk job) and that education system was directly inherited & continued evenafter Independence .Translation of below picture : “Till the focus of education is getting a job , we will only have job seekers or servants in the society and not the owners . “Image removed .SOURCES :https://www.indiatoday.in/amp/technology/news/story/indians-study-hard-and-get-mba-may-be-buy-mercedes-but-lack-creativity-apple-co-founder-steve-woz-1177668-2018-02-26India’s education system needs to be far better than it is today: Bill Gates - Times of India ►Better Science Journalism/CommunicationThe answer was collapsed due to Quora Moderation policy thereby necessary changes had been done .The answer was once again collapsed due to an image in Hindi , therefore i had to remove it.

Tesla very clearly used a mental technique also employed by Edison, Picasso, Bucky Fuller and others. Their associates reported that these geniuses didn't sleep!They did sleep though, and today it's called 'Poly' or 'Polyphasic Sleep:' sleeping enormously reduced hours in the form of naps throughout the day. I've used this myself (accidentally while cramming for university exams,) and after a few weeks of it, your "idea faucet" turns fully on. More like the ideas-firehose. The ideas-Niagra-Falls. But to use this technique, you cannot have a normal day job, or be living with others. Most experimenters have reported that Polyphasic Sleep will screw up your life because of how others respond to it. You'll be fired; for frequently hiding out and napping at work. You'll end up divorced because every night you're up all night making noise, never in bed. Also, the Crazy Eyes.Also, Tesla very probably used a mental technique described by Henri Poincare in his "Science and Method." It's a method for harnessing your own Unconscious, your Inner Savant.This is done by, first, taking very seriously all your spontaneous unconscious messages/ ideas/dreams. Write them down. Carry around a little notepad, always. When weird thoughts come to you out of nowhere, always try to record and preserve them, or at least get them into conscious memory, discarding nothing. Before getting out of bed each morning, try to recall details of one or more dreams, and perhaps write them down (perhaps keep a dream journal for a few years.) Learn meditation, existing with all your inner verbal thoughts shut down; thinking in pictures and pure concepts only. I'm convinced that normal adults treat the Unconscious channel as disgusting trash or worthless fantasy/ daydreaming, and all of us successfully suppress it. We reject our original thinking methods, leaving them behind as we grow up and learn thinking-in-words and logical reasoning. But to become a "grownup" is to become a non-genius. If instead we treat those thoughts/fantasies/daydreams like gold, then we reinforce the flow, and with luck open the floodgates. So, in other words, we're striving to return to our long-lost childhood mental state, living half in a daydream, with no internal verbal chatter or "grownup" logical thinking barriers blocking off the creative flow.Then second, after having worked on some major challenging engineering/math/scientific problem and getting nowhere ...give up. Drop the problem, unfinished. Work on something else. Go on vacation. Cease all conscious problem-solving for days or weeks. Then, as you're stepping onto a streetcar, or humming to yourself in the shower, or driving long distances in darkness ...suddenly the complete answer appears in your head, all in a flash. I've managed to do this myself several times, and the results are near-unbelievable in that it happens in an instant, yet it may involve pages and pages of new material coming "from nowhere," as if I'm taking dictation. When driving at night (slipping into 'drivers trance,') I'd get a huge flash of insight and have to pull over to the side, then spend an hour getting it all down on paper. Yet it appeared as a single event, in a one-second burst, "the light bulb" turning on. These spontaneous 'flash of genius' solutions didn't start happening until I'd spent years learning to think in concepts rather than words, years of writing down nearly every crazy idea to pop into my head, recording dreams every morning, etc., etc.And finally, you're probably going to have to become a weirdo loner outcast. (Of course if you started out as a loner, chances are good that you'd discover all of the above techniques without help!) If you weren't an outcast-type beforehand, then a few years of the above mental practices will do it. Loved ones and co-workers, the rest of "your tribe," will take your newly eccentric behavior as a descent into mental illness, rather than intentional cultivation of genius. Everyone in your life will edge away from you, since you're no longer a normal-grownup non-genius like everyone else. Obviously you've made yourself crazy, right? Turned hypomanic, possibly schitzophrenic. And everyone knows that crazy people are dangerous, THEY MIGHT DO ANYTHING ...like writing symphonies, inventing induction motors and radio, founding Cubisim, dressing shabby in coffeeshops and always scribbling scribbling scribbling dangerous ideas in their little notebooks, etc., all the sorts of stuff that deeply threatens those in power, and may at any time overturn our entire way of life.- Carl Jung, upon being asked by James Joyce to explain the difference between Joyce's mind versus that of his schizophrenic daughter, replied: "She falls.
