1 - Procrastination: Moderate procrastination increases creativity (because it gives our mind/subconscious time to ruminate on the idea). 2 - Fear and doubt: Fear and doubt are natural - embrace them. Idea doubt is healthy, self doubt is not. Use idea doubt to help refine your ideas. Rough drafts suck for a reason. Keep trying. Our biggest regrets are our inactions, not our actions. Instead of fearing failure, be more afraid of failing to try. People regret the things they never did more than the things they failed at. 3 - Lots of bad ideas: In order to have lots of good ideas, you will probably have lots of bad ideas too. Be willing to fail... a lot. In most cases, more failure equals more success. You won’t be judged for your bad ideas. Bonus: To be original, you don’t have to be first, you just have to be different and better (first mover advantage is mostly a myth). Don’t accept the default, look for a better solution.

He admitted to not being able to understand tensors, which is not as hard as learning differential geometry by any stretch. If that guy scratched his feet while doing physics he got credit for it.

Its not procrastination itself, but rather "distracting" yourself with other physical or mental tasks that are mildly mentally challenging. Something thats distracting enough for the subconcious mind to wander off, make new connections and then you have the inspired idea suddenly appear. The classic example of this is finding inspiration in the shower.

Summary of the talk: "3 Unique traits of Originals" [1. Original thinkers are late to the game] -They tend to procrastinate, this allows for more time to consider many different possibilities. Some call it procrastinating, others may call it thinking -They are late to the game, but they finish strong. Look at companies like Google - they did not have the first mover advantage, but they were different and better than the original (Yahoo! etc.) [2. They have doubts and fears] -Original thinkers have doubts like the rest of us. Just they handle it differently. They doubt their ideas, not themselves. They say "Maybe this idea doesn't work, let's think of another one" and not "Maybe I'm not good enough" -They have fears just like the rest of us, but they are more scared of NOT doing something more than anything. The things we regret the most are the chances not taken [3. They act on a LOT of ideas.] The sheer number of ideas put into play provides you with a large amount of variety to pick the best from the bunch

I'm a musician and producer. I watched this video like one year ago and thought that you have to create a lot to generate a good idea but now I watched it again and I think I changed my mind. Currently I'm working in a studio that has a lot of big composers and producers coming and going and I've watched them work. How they create tracks out of nothing is with really simple ideas and they start to build on top of them. For example, you start with one melody in the Mellotron, simple, 8 bars, monophonic, and then you build a harmony on top. Then you switch sound and you make a new melody with a new rhythm and you rinse and repeat, I've seen guys do this for 30 minutes and after they have a HUGE and great sounding 8 bars, that now they can flesh out in a lengthier arrangement. I tested it and it works! It works because if you are not a crazy good instrumentalist you can play simple lines and then intertwine them together to make them work and have a super great idea at the end, instead of spending 2 hours trying to come up with something super original and getting frustrated for your lack of technical ability in guitar. In the end I think the 'bad ideas' talked in this video they are real for sure but the 'not so good' or 'not creative enough' can act as building blocks of the big idea, just keep writing and keep yourself in the creative flow.

A HS art teacher of mine gave me one of the most important pieces of advice in my entire life... she'd see me frustrated with myself and my art piece and tell me, "you just haven't figured it out yet." This has become an encompassing mantra for me in my art, my career and my self. Lucky to have had this insight so young. Just stay the course and have basic trust that your efforts won't go unrewarded. You'll be compensated for your time and energy. Maybe not in money, but you will be rewarded. Love this TED!

Many originals aren't even given the chance to express their creativity.They are already crippled and punished at school for characteristics (such as procrastination and many others) that, like it was said in the video, fuel creativity. Society rarely... never takes into account those unusual characteristics of those unusual creative people - its task is to destroy all those "dangerous" characteristics, putting forward what society calls "productivity" over creativity. And this makes sense since society is very focused on mediocrity, because mediocrity is the majority! Society caters for the needs of the many! NOT the few exceptional people. But even though originals are few, the new ideas they can put out into the world can literally transform it. So spotting and nourishing originality and creativity is of great value. Only we rarely do spot creativity let alone nourish it...Many exceptional and creative people have only been recognized long after their death. Truly exceptional and creative people don't really need society though... Nah... they are lost in their creative mind, in their art (the confirmation of their worth is made through their expression of the art they focus on, which is why they can bare and don't really mind about being considered outcasts). No they don't need society - society needs them.

I learned this win I won $3,000 scholarship from a public art design competition out of a room full of fine artists, graphic designers, and illustrators- I was one of the only filmmakers. The thing that pushed me above was that I just never stoped designing and redesigning. When everyone else was already making their 3-D versions, I STILL hadn’t settled on my design and it was the last week before it was due. We artists are fans of other art and we have specific taste, and I knew I just wasn’t there yet. I would know it when I see it. And I won. I took what I learned on every film I’ve done since and has led to success every single time. It’s my secret formula. I worked in a screenplay for a 8 MINUTE short everyday for 6 months. It ended up winning Best Picture, Best Director, Best Cinematography, etc at my local film showcase. That’s all you have to do: just work harder than anyone and never ever be satisfied with you first few drafts of something, not even your first 20 drafts I’d say. It really does make the difference.

Procrastination does help boost creativity. I was writing my first draft for a story I'm working on, and while doing it I was pretty excited about it and made great progress. But the zeal that I started with slowly waned and I started procrastinating more and eventually gave up towards the end. However, I resumed it after a year of other works, and I got brand new ideas, which kept a few essences of my first draft but was otherwise completely different, yet so much more better, I had more idea, and more ways to frame them.

Also people don't realize the difference between original or good ideas and popular or money-making ideas. Really when people talk about 'failure' or 'bad ideas' they are often confusing the lack of popularity with a lack of merit. Also, someone who generates many ideas may have lots of good ones that don't become popular. That doesn't make them good ideas. AND, often the best ideas are passed over for inferior ones, just because they are easier to understand or popularize. There is a false belief that monetary success or popularity is equivalent to merit. This is not true. Understanding the differences can make it easier to achieve popularity/monetary success regardless of how 'original' or innovative the idea truly is.

I am an original thinker and it is bloody hard work... I wrote a chapter of 14,000 words in ten days last month and scrapped it. It took me 12 attempts to perfect another chapter of 12,000 words... each time completing the chapter and scrapping it. I submitted my PhD thesis, successfully defended it in the viva, and started rewriting it with a different argument (aka a new thesis using the same data but with a different original argument). Seven years, and I predict my thesis will be complete in 2018. There are now students that I taught as first year undergrads who are graduating with their PhDs before me. The biggest problem with being original is that there is no other material out there that you are building on... or very little because what exists you have taken and moved it in a different direction. That has been the constant battle because my supervisors keep saying I need to show awareness of the field but I am pioneering the field and it has yet to catch up to where I am. It is easy having original ideas but it is difficult implementing them to a successful conclusion.

This episode could have been titled differently. It is not about being original, nor about trying many ideas, nor about any number of factors he mentioned. It is about Time! Speed is extremely overrated, unfortunately. But it is emphasized the most. Time assures Quality! It is why procrastination works. I learned that from a difficult project that engaged me for over 25 years. I am still on it. I asked myself a few years ago why I stayed with my project for so long, and why I did not get done with it years ago. At that point, I was even past rushing it. One word captured it all, which is why I believe this episode could have been titled differently. It is about letting ideas FERMENT! Once you plant an idea in your heads, let it ferment. Fermentation brings out the best. It means Clarity. It means Quality. And it will pass for Originality. Let things Ferment in your heads. Magic happens. Try it.

So its not necessarily procrastination, but perfectionism, not accepting it is ever good enough, but also realizing that you need to take breaks and think about it. There has been a study about the most effective way of learning. Turns out that you should only learn about a topic for an hour and then take a 30 minute to an hour break. This in turn allows you to refresh your mind and process what you have learned instead of having it sit and serve no purpose. It also allows you to come up with new ideas rather than just stick to one

@StevenFosdick5 жыл бұрын
Perfectionism is a reasonable term for doubting the first idea and taking time to improve it but that was a different point from the one about procrastination. The point about procrastination is that parts of our brains we are not aware of work on problems that we have acknowledged even when we are not consciously thinking about them and sleep is important to that process. Most of us have probably had the experience of grappling with something and not finding the solution, giving up and going to bed and then waking up knowing the answer. That's why it is important to have an initial think through of the problem or idea and then get on with something else so it bubbles away in the background. What the speaker here is advocating is extending that process over a much longer time. It is also worth noting that among people such as musicians/composers, those at the top of the profession are never settled, always looking to be even better, but they do so my trying to make each performance or each composition better than the previous one. It's fatal instead to have a single masterpiece which you never show the world because there is always one more improvement to make.

Hidden Time Wealth is so unique. I can’t believe I hadn’t heard about it sooner. It’s amazing how life-changing this can be for anyone battling procrastination.

When I was architecture student I'd study about the project requirements therally, then do nothing for a long time, I'd dream up my solutions/designs and then develop concepts and final presentations, it was usually among the best. I think procrastination is not a factor, what matter is: how much time you've given to your subconscious mind to solve the idea before it being fed to your conscious self.

Hidden Time Wealth blew my mind. I’ve shared it with friends, and they’re all amazed at how much more productive they've become.

I remember I was a group leader and we were supposed to submit a System Simulation project. On the presentation day, I told my lecturer I didn't understand anything she had thought so far so I didn't do it. The lecturer got so mad because we actually didn't have a good start from the first day. Fortunately for me, the rest of the groups who submitted their project had to redo it again because it was so bad. On the day of presentation, I presented my groups work and she was shocked. We gave the best project and the best presentation.

Constraints and “Procrastination” are THE keys to creativity ... there is huge value to letting the subconscious mind work, and to letting pressure build ...

I'm definitely a procrastinator. Not 100% of the time but let's say 90. I need a ton of time to be really sure I wanna start, I feel that after a ton of distraction the "important" task ferments in my head and gets better. It's risky though.
