Creative Solutions Using 'What If?'
Summary
Looking for innovative solutions to your challenges? Use the question "What if it was...?" to unlock creativity.Boosting Creativity with "What If?"
To find truly creative solutions, it's essential to shift your perspective. A structured way to do this is by generating "what if?" scenarios using a list of adjectives. Start by asking, "What if it was..." and then insert a word from your list. The "it" refers to your problem, existing solution, or situation.
Here's how it works with a couple of examples.
Example One: Dealing with a Difficult Co-worker
Imagine you're struggling with an unpleasant co-worker. Ask yourself, "What if it was... smaller?" Could you make the problem smaller by spending less time with them or getting reassigned?
Consider "What if it was... fun?" Could being a bit annoying yourself keep them at bay? Or, "What if it was... closer?" Maybe getting to know them better would improve the situation. Work through each word on your list to generate new ideas, then evaluate them analytically later.
Example Two: A Crowded Home Business
If your home feels overcrowded because of your business, ask, "What if it was... smaller?" While the house may be too small, could the business itself be downsized? "What if it was... divided?" might prompt you to consider dedicating just one area of your home to the business.
Not every word will provide a solution, but don't dismiss any too quickly. "What if it was... hopeless?" might initially seem irrelevant, but it could lead you to realize that moving the business out of your home might be the best solution.
Building Your Creative Solutions Word List
Create your own list of adjectives and descriptive phrases to help shift perspectives. Here’s a list to get you started:
- What if it was... larger, smaller, farther away, closer, sooner, later, easier, more difficult, higher, fat, rich, short, black, certain, hopeless, newer, boring, casual, subtracted from, cheaper, common, divided, more interesting, extravagant, subtle, or fun?
As with many problem-solving techniques, it's crucial to let ideas flow without judgment. Avoid stifling your creative process. Take notes freely, then analyze your ideas later when you have a list of potential solutions.
