Creativity Thoughts from my Tweets

Creativity thoughts from my tweets

Creativity starts with having fun trying to meet a real need.

Thinking of others improves creativity since usually it benefits others or society.

Creativity peaks in the morning when fresh, in the shower, out for a run or a walk in a new place. Complaining keeps us from moving forward, but Use adversity to stimulate creativity.

Creative people guard their time, sometimes say no to new projects.

Seeing patterns and making connections lead to insights and ideas.

Negative thoughts impair creativity, but sometimes the negative tension can urge us on to a new creative solution.

Creativity is thinking up new things.

Interface Technology for the Brain

Today people are developing technology to interface directly with the brain. One of the more safe ones (besides just a keyboard and mouse) is EEG (ElectroEncephaloGram). With EEG electrical probes are attached to the head on the surface. These connections are wired to a pre-amplifier or instrument amplifier, digitized and feed into a PC or Mac computer for analysis.

Several very low frequency brain waves have been discovered. The waves are actually radio waves (electro-magnetic) but the magnetic component is so small that just the electrical component is picked up.

Here is a few great articles:

People Purchase on Emotion

Feelings speak loader than thoughts and reasonings….so its not the product that is better, but the one that feels the best. Even comparison charts help in sales, but understand then the user pulls out the credit card for a purchase, it was most of the time where the emotions have dictated.
