The surprising habits of original thinkers
Our habits shape our success, and organizational psychologist Adam Grant offers five surprising mindset tips in his TED Talk:
- Be different, not first. Originals stand out by executing unique ideas and challenging the status quo.
- Don’t write yourself off. They share fears and doubts but don’t let them hold them back.
- Procrastinate to innovate. Starting early but finishing slowly refines creativity.
- Embrace idea doubt, not self-doubt. Questioning ideas improves them, but self-doubt limits progress.
- Fear of failing? Originals know failure leads to success by generating more ideas.
As Adam Grant says: “Being original is not easy. But it is the best way to improve the world around us.”
