Insights from Adam Grant’s Originals, my 38th book for this year. 🎯
My takeaways:
We create from something and build on someone else’s idea and make it better. We thrive in two ways according to scientists: conformity or originality. Are you conforming or are you creating something original?
🎯Intuition serves you well if you’re experienced in your industry or certain field because your brain can spot the patterns abruptly. In contrast, this doesn’t work every time if you’re exploring a new domain or space. You need other people to validate and criticize your idea. So better challenge yourself and look for people who don't share the same industry or even principles with you and extract some ideas. I've done this with my spouse since he's an entrepreneur and in the wholesale hardware and electrical business. Whenever I feel stuck with content in general, I asked his opinions and insights, giving me a different perspective because he's an outsider in my space.
🎯One of the things that I’ve learned is that there may be times that procrastination can actually become an incubator of originality or original ideas. There’s also the level of procrastinators where in some situations, adopting a medium-procrastination can help you squeeze new creative juices.
Here’s a quote: "Great originals are great procrastinators, but they don’t skip planning altogether. They procrastinate strategically, making gradual progress by testing and refining different possibilities. …moderate procrastination enhanced creativity by leading participants to incubate longer before submitting their first idea, which helped them frame the problem differently and explore more remote knowledge."
🎯 Another thing that I learned from the book is that according to studies, older siblings are risk averse while laterborns have higher tolerance on risks—all these are shaped by how they were parented. As a parent, I agree with this based on my experience, because since I'm a first-time mom, I am navigating an unchartered territory on how to take care of my daughter. But being a protective parent can backfire as well because kids should naturally explore and stay curious for their development. They must learn to take risk, experience pains and consequences from their actions, but with support and supervision, making them feel it'sokay to fail, make mistakes, and get dirty with sand, clays, and mud. 🙂
Quote I highlighted:
“Unexpectedly, some of the greatest creative achievements and change initiatives in history have their roots in procrastination, and the tendency to delay and postpone can help entrepreneurs build companies that last, leaders guide transformation efforts, and innovators maintain their originality.”
