Soft Thinking ?
Soft Thinking
Soft thinking is like a Floodlight, more diffuse, and covering a wider area.
It is metamorphic, Approximate, Humorous, and playful.
Hard Thinking
• Hard thinking is like a spot light. Bright, clear, and intense. But the focus is narrow.
• It is logical, precise, exact, specific
0.2 -- The Creative Process
Hard thinking is not necessarily bad.
It takes both soft, and hard thinking together to form the
CREATIVE PROCESS

Imagination Phase
Quality Work
Practical Phase
Imaginative Phase
What Assumptions Can We Break?What If ? Why Not?
You ask questions such as…
How About We Looked At This Backwards?
The Motto Is…
Thinking Something Different
Practical Phase
Do We Have The Resources To Implement This?
Is This Idea Any Good?
You ask questions such as…
What's The Deadline?
The Motto Is…
Getting Something Done
0.3 -- That’s Not Logical
Some people have little use for soft thinking.
When faced with a problem. They say “Let’s get down to brass tacks”What about Steel tacks?
Plastic Tacks? Income Tax? Syntax? Contacts?
Our educational system does a fairly good job to develop our thinking skills
Or at best, teaching us to regard it as a inferior tool
But, much of our education is geared towards eliminating soft thinking
The
That’s Not Logical K
This lock may make you discard the mind’s softest, and most valuable creation. The intuitive hunch.
Your mind is constantly recording, connecting, and storing informationLater it combines this disparate information into answers.
Or “Hunches”
Have You Had Any Hunches Recently?
SummarySoft thinking is metamorphic, Approximate, Humorous, and
playful.
Hard thinking is logical, precise, exact, specific
Hard thinking + Soft thinking = the creative process
Quality Work = Imaginative phase + Practical phase
