You learn at first. During this stage, you should concentrate on 1) learning specific material directly related to your task and 2) learning general material by becoming fascinated with a wide range of concepts.

During this stage, you examine what you've learned by looking at the facts from different perspectives and experimenting with putting different ideas together.

Then you completely forget about the problem and go do something else that excites and energises you.

Your idea will return to you with a flash of insight and renewed energy at some point, but only after you have stopped thinking about it.

For any idea to succeed, it must be put out into the world, subjected to criticism, and adapted as necessary.

The act of making new connections between old ideas is referred to as the creative process. As a result, we can define creative thinking as the task of identifying relationships between concepts.
