Perhaps the great creative thinking minds keep there minds in a perpetual and intentional state of asking while most of us think we are applying ourselves only when we feel called upon to do so.

Rakesh, that makes me think who certifies that the criteria one uses to decide for self if he/she is creative or not creative is the right one?

Nice thoughts Jayesh. However, this creative business is fuzzy. Some may agree on definition of 'being different' while some may not. At the end of the day what matters is that what ever model of 'creative thinking' you adopt according to your individual style/likings, how do you chose to provide a sustainable life to it and take it to make the difference in something...and making difference for something better as compared to existing norms/standards. Every human being is different so its very difficult to systematize the 'creative thinking' part and more over I believe creative thinking is in-built, you have it or you don't. At best, one can make effort for being creative but if you don't have in yourself, its not going to be really much productive trying to be one. But giving life to a creative idea could be more systematic and that's where I think art of innovation really lies. World is full of people who can creatively ideate or generate opinions about everything around them but what's really hard is to find a way to realize some of those creative ideas through persisted scheme of things, from creation to deployment and value realization....

As far as area of creative thinking is concerned, I'm sure there are varied possibility of creating creative thinking platforms (somewhat that Vivek is referring to) that can make creative thinking more collaborative, fun and easier to build up.

Absolutely Vivek. What you said is very much possible and is part of ideaken development road map. Moving from individual innovation to idea management to open innovation, the team solution is the next frontier.

That is very well thought Jayesh. In fact I too think in parallel with you. Actually speaking in profession no one is creative and in the real world every one is. Thousand times I have told to myself that "Vivek - the idea you got while rubbing the soap while having bath needs to be jotted down somewhere". In fact we need to have a very easy to use infrastructure to preserve ideas for use. It may be a very weird impractical and out of the world thought. But being positive upon the thinking of one ... the other part time players can continue to elaborate the idea by adding their drops of creativity. What say?
