1. Try to see a problem in a way in which nobody has looked at it before. Leonardo da Vinci thought that the first way people looked at a problem was too prejudiced and to find a solution people needed to use many different ways of approaching it. From a new perspective a problem gets reconstructed and becomes a different one.
2. Illustrate possible solutions to a problem or try to see it with your eyes closed, this may make it clearer. When Einstein thought a problem over, he always found it necessary to present his subject in as many different ways as possible, including diagrams, schemes, sketches, plans and so on. Einstein believed that words and numbers did not play an important role in a thinking process, he tried to visualise the problem and its solution.
3. Produce as many ideas as you can. A good example is Thomas Edison. He had 1,093 patents, which is an individual record by itself. His phenomenal productivity could be explained by his personal Idea Quota: he demanded that he come up with a small invention every ten days and a bigger invention every six months. He created a laboratory that became the first research and development centre where new ideas were generated, developed and industrial samples were produced.
4. Experiment with unusual combinations. The Austrian monk Gregor Mendel was the first person who combined mathematics and biology and discovered the laws of heredity, on which the modern science of genetics is based. He performed over 20,000 experiments interbreeding plants and then mathematically analysed the results.
5. If you can’t understand why it is white, ask yourself why it is not black. Niels Bohr, a famous physicist and Nobel laureate, believed that if you think of opposites together, your mind could move to a new level. His ability to imagine light as both a particle and a wave led to the discovery of the complementary principle in quantum mechanics.
6. Think what a problem reminds you of or what it looks like. Aristotle, a Greek philosopher, considered using a metaphor in your thinking a quality of a genius. He also believed that the person who had the ability to see some common things between two distant areas and link them together was the person with some special talents.
7. You can learn a lot from your own mistakes and failures. It’s better to analyse what you have done than blame yourself for your faults. Do not concentrate on your bad result, instead analyse the working process and its components, and think what you can change in order to get other results.
