How to use creative thinking and the power of auto-suggestion

What is auto-suggestion and creative thinking ? Everything starts with a thought or an idea and this thought or idea is the creative thinking of our when you have an "Aha" moment. Sometimes we get inspiration from an existing idea and how something can be improved or reinvented. There is no limit to your imagination.

Most ideas or creative thinking comes from some challenge you may have encountered or problem you may experience yourself. When those creative juices start flowing, riches can be obtained very easily if you put it into action.


A lot of times we don't know how to monetize these ideas or creative thinking and you end up with a lot of ideas that if you don't put on paper or into action are lost and never revisited because you gave up before you even started or said to yourself I can never make this happen. Sounds Familiar ?
Creative thinking involves creating something new or original. It involves the skills of flexibility, originality, fluency, elaboration, brainstorming, modification, imagery, associative thinking, attribute listing, metaphorical thinking, forced relationships. The aim of creative thinking is to stimulate curiosity and promote divergence.

I started on a journey to enlightened myself about business and how to be constructive with my time and what I do with my time. But first I needed to learn how to be creative and use the power of auto-suggestion. One of the most important things I learned is, " What we believe we can conceive". Once I learned how to believe and how to use the power of my mind then I could apply it to anything I wanted to do or achieve.

Why is it called , "Auto-Suggestion or Creative Thinking" ? It is called auto-suggestion because this is exactly what you do. You suggest to yourself that you want to be successful in your business and you keep suggesting it until it is engraved in your subconscious and at the same time believe without a doubt in your mind that you can achieve what you set out to do.
