Dreaming Big in Innovation

 

Is there a such thing as a genie in the bottle? What about wishful thinking versus taking action, is there a thin line between the two?  In the simplest terms, wishful thinking is the act of wanting something to happen when it is considered to be impossible.  Wishful thinking is not just about fantasizing it’s about thinking of an idea, it’s about being intuitive and daring to make your dreams a reality.  You have a problem and use this approach to find potential solutions to the problem.  I believe that wishful thinking sparks innovation and it engages intrinsic motivation which leads to being innovative.  Wishful thinking helps you to redefine a problem and to gain new insights.
