Creative Thinking-How Your Mind Comes up with Ideas

Want to make yourself more valuable to your company? Want to get a raise, climb the ladder, make more money? Then learn how to manage your own innate ability to create. By understanding how your mind works you can invent new products,solve problems and increase your personal worth. This short video is taken from the Lectures and Writings page of Howtosellyouridea.com Stuart J. Kamille, author, inventor, lecturer and consultant gives you a pleasant introduction to your unconscious mind and the role it plays in creative thought. (This early video was the starting point for How To Think Creatively, a new series of lectures with a similar name. I had to re-title this one to avoid confusion with the new video available on howtosellyouridea.com.) But it still has some good stuff that you'll find useful.

Adopting Creative Thinking

Creative thinking is the ability to let your mind create thoughts that are often different and unusual. Creative thinking evolves around the idea of thinking beyond the scope of the norm. It is all about being able to think outside the box and be original in your thought process. Creative thinking is something you can train your mind to do. Some people are actually born with creative thinking abilities, while others have to really work to let themselves be a creative thinker. However, it is possible for anyone to become a great creative thinker whether they were naturally born or they have to work at it. You hold the key to adopting creative thinking in your life and by doing so; you could change your life, your thoughts and your world, forever. What is Creative Thinking? Have you ever had an amazing idea that just seems to be the ideal solution to a problem? Has anyone ever told you that you are amazing when you have shared an idea? Have you ever solved a problem that nobody else could solve? If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, then chances are you already know what creative thinking is.

This video was created for the men and women of the 524th Combat Service Support Battalion. Edited by David Lakota Below is the narrative: I want to speak to you as the soldier at the front the soldier at the end of the supply chain. I commanded five rifle platoons and two of them in combat. I am the end of the line for all that you can provide my infantry soldiers. My soldiers are the reason you have a job. In Vietnam I ate thirty year old food in a steel can and smoked lucky strike greens. These were packed during world war two. When I got two small loafs of local bread and an onion to go with it everything changed. My supply chain guys were creative. They went the extra mile. We had to use substandard ammunition that jammed our rifles because it wasnt made with the same care for the rounds were that sold the M-16 rifle to the government. Someone was looking out for their profit margin and not our lives. My supply guys advised use to clean our weapons in a special way and clean them more often because thery found out about the situation. They thought outside the box. They combed the woodwork looking for that creative something else. Then they remembered who they were serving and that our lives were also their business.

It's inevitable right?! Video #1: I wanna grow old with you MEP for MMDS Song: "I wanna grow old with you" by Westlife Type of MEP: Canon Couples Footage: Hercules movie and tv series Pairing: Hercules/Meg Studio: Mystical Miracle Dreams Studios Notes- I hate this and love this for different reasons. LOVE because it's Hercules/Meg and HATE because I suck at vidding slow songs. Hope this turned out decent enough. Well I also love it because it gave me an excuse to use the two episodes from the Hercules tv series that had Meg in them. I felt using those helped round out the theme of two people who are meant to be together because it shows Herc and Meg when they are young and it progresses their relationship{though there are some continuity issues between the film and the series} Also, I HATE the way Meg looks in the series...she looks terrible! Well, I still love this and I know this MEP will be beautiful!
