Tips to help your creativity

These are some handy tips I have gleaned through re-reading The Magic of Thinking Big by David J Schwartz.

Take 10 minutes at the beginning of each day and ask yourself the following: You will need paper and pen to note any thoughts down.
1. How can I do a better job today? – list down all the thoughts that come to mind
2. Ask yourself, what can I do today to encourage my colleagues
3. What special favour can I do for my clients / customers
4. What can I do to improve my personal efficiency today

This is so simple an exercise to do, and it really does help you to focus on the tasks to hand on a daily basis.

In his book David Schwartz talks about having a self improvement plan. What is this you say. Well, by asking the questions above and blitzing out the ideas comes up with a plan that you can effectively put into place during that week, and over time if monitored or reviewed will show practical improvements and results.

Be more receptive to ideas given to you by other colleagues, co-workers, clients. Get rid of the ‘can’t work’ ‘not the way it is done’ attitude. Be more open as to how it can be done, expanding on the thoughts and ideas to create more positive ideas and possibly solutions.
