Incisive Questions:
Removing assumptions that limit ideas. Asking incisive questions to remove limiting beliefs and assumptions.
Place:
Creating a physical environment that says to people "You matter". When their environment affirms their importance, people will think and act more boldly. Creativity is about making connections. - so says WhatIf founder Dave Allen in his book on creativity Sticky Wisdom
In order to create new connections we need new input. It is very difficult to make new connections between things as they are. However if we can look at existing things in new ways or discover entirely new things then we can also forge new connections which are creative and innovative ideas.
Dave likes this idea a lot - and feels that this matches his aims expressed in his article on synergism and connections. To help with the randomness Dave has started a collection of quotes, ideas, anything that might help to spark off an original idea. The randomness boxes will be popping up around the site, well, randomly and each time you refresh the page you'll get a different quote / idea / etc
Randomness
In a review of studies since the 1950s we have discovered that 65-75% of employees in all organisations say that the most stressful part of their job is their boss

I hope you enjoy them, suggestions are, as ever, gratefully received...

25-FEB-04: The third person
Last week Purple One of New Zealand mailed me to ask why Dave refers to himself in the third person. Never one to miss an opportunity for a blog topic I'm discussing it here.
At the most basic it's a kind of affectation in an attempt to make the site a bit more interesting - a house style if you like - like the three dots…
There's also a less flippant side in that I think it reflects the different personalities within me. You know how sometimes you observe yourself as if from the outside, well as the online Dave has written more and got feedback from people he has become slightly different from me. Part of this is living up to the implied expectation of the feedback and previous content. Dave is now (to a limited extent) public, thus doesn't define what he is himself, but is defined by his social context. This is obviously always true - you are a different person to everyone who knows you - and the way that you behave when around them reflects your understanding of their expectations.
I've also discovered that I am referring to myself in the third person in speech as well. I feel that this is because of the different states I can be in when performing different tasks. For example, I don't do the washing up, I think of how I could have handled a situation at work better, whilst Dave does the washing up.
By being able to present a consistent face to many people simultaneously (as one can on the web) I have realised that there are many Daves: the online Dave, the work Dave, the at home Dave, the out on the town Dave. However, I still feel contained within myself. I still feel as if I am internally consistent and an ongoing entity that develops and grows. If we observed Dave from the outside over time you and I would see that Dave is different things to different people, changes his accent depending on the class of his surroundings, affects habits to fit in, all the things that we do socially. Thus, Dave is not consistent at all as far as his identity is defined by his relationships with others.
I feel an article on identity brewing… Whilst it completes its fermentation, here is an amazing piece by Jorge Luis Borges. I first saw it in The Mind's I : Fantasies and Reflections on Self and Soul, but got the text from here
"Borges and I" by Jorge Luis Borges
