A crash course in changing the world.
think like a child – children have no limit to their thinking
I believe that this is very important when it comes
to social innovation. The wh*** idea of social innovation is to try and create
new ideas and share them to different people. I feel that thinking like a child
will change our views completely. As said in the tip, children have no limit to
their thinking and they are very creative. If we stop worrying about all of the
positive and negative effects of a solution and have an open minds like children,
we might be able to find a solution to a problem. Children look at things at a
completely different way than those who are more experienced and know more
about things. For example, I read a story about how a child received shelled
peanuts from China. Now, teenagers and adults obviously know that there are two
or three peanuts in the shell because of our experiences with them and maybe
because of our background knowledge. After the child ate the peanuts, the child
was commenting on how Chinese people were extremely generous. "These
people gave me two peanuts and sometimes even three! They're really
kind!!" Most of us would not think or even imagine that kind of answer,
but it is creative. Children are not experienced at all, so they see things
with fresh eyes and think with a new mind. I think if we do what children do,
we might come up with creative ideas like they do.
