Creatividad (VIII): Adam Grant


Descubro en el curso #CREA_INTEF este vídeo de una charla TED en la que el psicólogo Adam Grantexperto en motivación y creatividad y autor del libro Originals: How Non-Conformists Move the World examina los hábitos de los pensadores creativos, divergentes y poco convencionales.

Resumiendo: compensa posponer las tareas, dudar sobre las propias ideas y maneras de hacer las cosas, viéndolas desde una óptica diferente y más arriesgada, y estar abierto al fracaso.
Procrastination gives you time to consider divergent ideas, to think in nonlinear ways, to make unexpected leaps. 
Procrastinating is a vice when it comes to productivity, but it can be a virtue for creativity.

Look at a classic study of over 50 product categories, comparing the first movers who created the market with the improvers who introduced something different and better. What you see is that the first movers had a failure rate of 47 percent, compared with only 8 percent for the improvers. 
I discovered there are two different kinds of doubt. There's self-doubt and idea doubt. Self-doubt is paralyzing. It leads you to freeze. But idea doubt is energizing. It motivates you to test, to experiment, to refine. 
It's about being the kind of person who takes the initiative to doubt the default and look for a better option. And if you do that well, you will open yourself up to the opposite of déjà vu.There's a name for it. It's called vuja de. 
If you look across fields, the greatest originals are the ones who fail the most, because they're the ones who try the most.
