Imagination: the source of all innovation
Imagining and reconnecting with our ‘inner child’ can have huge benefits, even for business. McKinsey & Company recently pointed out that children have invented some of our most well known products like the trampoline, popsicles and earmuffs.
“Kids have a special way of cultivating creativity—and some even see their crafty ideas develop into lucrative business opportunities,” the firm noted in a post this year called ‘How to think like a kid’.
Do you want to tap into that playful childlike experimental frame of mind, that inquisitive nature that leads to breakthroughs like these:
Braille; invented by a young Louis Braille who lost his sight at age three
Christmas lights; the brainchild of Albert Sadacca who enlisted his parents’ novelty lighting company to make them in 1925
Snowmobiles; underwent many iterations after a first attempt by Joseph-Armand Bombardier who, at age 15, attached a Ford Model T engine to four runners and added a handmade propeller onto its back.
If you want to gain access to that imaginative, experimental mindset, to take an innovative path, there is a way to reconnect with your imagination.
