Highly creative thinkers are good at seeing connections. By enhancing your ability to see connections, you can enhance your creativity. Based on this observation, a solid theory, and the latest neuroscience, this exercise book is for people who want to become better creative thinkers.

This book gives you:

  • 52 exercises to enhance your creativity
  • Opportunity to think, rethink and think again
  • Fun training for your brain
  • Hands-on training in generating ideas
  • Fun for everybody aged 6-99

Creative Thinker's Rethink Book trains your ability to see and make connections β€” the underlying mechanism that helps you to think creatively. The exercises in this book force you to go beyond the obvious β€” to think and rethink β€” again and again. It is not a theory book. It's a hands-on exercise book to boost your creativity and innovative thinking. Working with these exercises will help you come up with fresh thinking, original ideas, and unexpected innovative solutions.

You can use this book as a creative morning booster, a warm-up before working creatively, for everyday creativity training, or just as a fun activity. The exercises can be used at home, at school, in the design studio, in the office, or in the agency. Creativity is for everybody!
