Att bryta vanans makt

I’ve read a book called ”Att bryta vanans makt”, which translated to English would be something like breaking the power of habit. The book is about how to not think ”how we’re supposed to”, thinking in the patterns we’re used to, but how to open our minds to thinking outside the box and stimulate out creativity.

"We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created hem." Albert Einstein

They talk about something called “assignment change” and they have two main questions; which problems do you want to avoid?, and what kind of future do you want?

This assignment is divided in five phases;

The preparing phase – What do we want?

The criticism phase – Clear out and identify the problems.

The fantasy phase – Discover opportunities and formulate ideas. Brainstorming.

The anchoring phase – Decide what needs to be done.

The follow up phase – Keep the process going.

I think our assignment in the Leaninno Course is a good way of stimulating our creativity and also to read books and learn things you maybe otherwise wouldn’t have read. 

Since I read the book in Swedish and the blog is in English the translation might not be perfect but I hope it's good enough :)
