How selfies owe it to creative thinking
The great-grandad of today's selfies, the Ives Process, was developed by innoivative thinker Frederic Eugene Ives. He held over 70 patents by the end of his career and was a trailblazer in the field of photography.
How did he get his first breakthrough?
He simply slept on it...not that difficult, right? 😉
But, the secret lies in how he prepped his brain before that and what he did with the raw data his mind threw back at him....that's creative genius.

Innovative ideas happen when you can...
- See the relationship between two utterly different or usually unconnected concepts, and
- Present existing pieces in a brand new combination...no need to reinvent the wheel.

The 5 stages
- Gathering in-depth knowledge directly related to the task, plus a general understanding of diverse topics.
- Trying to fit different ideas and concepts together to see if they produce cohesive pictures.
- Once done, putting them aside and doing something totally unconnected. If you were Sherlock Holmes, you would probably be gushing about the Stradivarius violin by this time 😁.
- Waiting for the idea to return.
- Testing & adapting it based on feedback.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
