Week 4 Reading Reflection

While I was reading chapter 5 one thing that really caught my attention and made me stop and self evaluate was when the author pointed out the “the most common idea killers”. As I was going through the list I notice how often I say and hear those same words. I have always described myself as non-creative or creative enough but as the author says “its not reserve talent, but they way we look at the world”. One part of the reading that was confusing to me was when the author talked about evaluating and implementation, I understood when they mentioned evaluating yourself but how exactly would you implement? If I could ask the author two questions, it would be where do I start when it comes into looking at the world in different ways? How can I be more open to new ideas and more creativity around me? I would these questions because personally is something I have trouble doing or knowing where to start. I personally do not think the author was wrong about anything, the authors ideas and examples were really helpful.
