RE THINK ON SIX HATS

On re-thinking (please refer to my post of Aug) I think that Six Hats which is based on Parallel thinking and which I had termed as non creative or critical, could also be creative provided one uses the sequences of six hats in a creative manner ! But the question is can one really be non critical in the choice of the sequence of the colours of the hat. Perhaps, a random selection of hats be considered creative.

Identifying new Thinking

What Dr De Bono refers as new thinking,namely,Creative thinking(in the sense of Lateral Thinking) One can do better by distinguishing it from Critical thinking if we talk of creative thinking systems and Critical thinking systems instead. This, of course presupposes that we are able to design the internal structure of the two systems and the inter dependence between the two. This to my mind would help people at large to appreciate and recognize the difference easily.

PARALLEL THINKING

The term Parallel thinking was coined by Dr Edward De Bono. Unlike Lateral Thinking,which is a variety of Creative thinking, Dr Edward De Bono's famous Six Thinking Hats based on Parallel thinking is not based solely on Creative thinking,but uses analytical thinking tools as well.Only the Green Hat is Creative thinking hat. In particular,black hat refers to Critical thinking.In practice,some users find newer versions of online Brain storming more spontaneous-the very essence of creative thinking.

Everyone does not want to be creative

It is a common experience that most people like to listen to good music being played but would not like to learn to play themselves. Likewise, enjoy reading novels but not write them.So alsso most people  would like to appreciate creative ideas but not necessarily like to learn to get creative ideas themselves.

SECOND ORDER CREATIVE THINKING

While enough literature -published, and or, on the web-is available on CreativeThinking Tools or Techniques of Creative Thinking, little literature is available on how to do creative thinking on Creative Thinking Tools , that is, Second Order Creativity so to say.  Are there any process steps for that ? or is it dependent on individual's creative flash ?

Transforming the burden of mind

Creative thinking can lead to de stressing of the mind normally resulting from excessive use of critical thinking.Creative thinking is free of burden of thinking as it allows one to think what you desire and are willing to float in any direction that you want rather  be constrained by the very critical thinking process.
