HOW TO BUILD CREATIVE THINKING SKILLS

• The Opusway

2
Original and Innovative ways

• OPUS vocally supports the contention that it is
  very much possible for a candidate to develop his
  creative thinking skills. -

3
How to improve Creativity

• As we know creativity is broadly defined as an
  art of thinking, imagining or doing something new
  in a different way in order to classify it as
  unique and practical, let us first take up a host
  of behavioral trends for discussion in this OPUS
  design blog.

4
Need for change

• One should feel the need to bring in change. In
  order to trigger lateral thinking, OPUS believes
  candidates should frame surroundings and the
  environment in such a manner that necessities and
  requirements always remain in plenty.

5
Find faults

• OPUS is of the view that a creative designer
  should always find fault or shortcomings in the
  existing designs. When designers look for
  problems or flaws, there is an inherent
  inclination to come up with something better, to
  upgrade it the existing output. Every innovation
  begins with requirements and requirements are
  proportional to fault findings.

6
Be different

• If you observe things differently, the creative
  spark is there. So be different, think
  differently and do things differently. Try to
  spot the unusual, the hidden and raise questions.
  
• Exposure
• OPUS has observed that design candidates derive
  benefits when they expose themselves to different
  situations. In order to be creative, one should
  be aware of many things in many areas

7
Sharing Ideas

• OPUS encourages the habit of sharing thoughts and
  ideas with friends, family, guides and teachers
  as it helps candidates in more ways than one.
  Your vision the way of looking at things around
  is always assessed by others. They can judge
  the merit in thinking and find loopholes so that
  you can rectify yourself at an early stage.

8
Assess ideas from others

• OPUS supports the view that design guys should
  respond to what their friends have come up with.
  Try and locate errors in how they conceived it.
  Find merits in their concepts and what other
  ideas can be derived from them. Also keep in mind
  how superior their creative output is.
• Live in assumptions
• OPUS feels when designers imagine things, they
  imagine impossible things and that is perhaps
  what makes them highly creative. Consider
  anything and make suitable assumptions on how to
  deal with it. Unwrap your imagination and think
  crazily.

9
Observe and Analyse others

• Confidence
• As discussed already, OPUS insight reveals that
  criticism affects many creative people and they
  lose confidence.
• Fear of failure
• Whether your design is going to take the world by
  storm or not becomes clear only when you have
  made it. Keep trying and evolving and get closer
  to success. OPUS celebrates the power of
  participation to push the creative bar.
