How do creative people come up with great ideas? Organizational psychologist Adam Grant studies "originals": thinkers who dream up new ideas and take action to put them into the world. In this talk, learn three unexpected habits of originals — including embracing failure.
"The greatest originals are the ones who fail the most, because they're the ones who try the most," Grant says. "You need a lot of bad ideas in order to get a few good ones."
Originals are "quick to start, and slow to finish."
"Originals feel fear too. They are afraid of failing, but what sets them apart from the rest of us is that they are even more afraid of failing to try."
"Know
- that being quick to start but slow to finish can boost your creativity,
- that you can motivate yourself by doubting your ideas and embracing the fear of failing to try,
- that you need a lot of bad ideas in order to get a few good ones."
"Look being original is not easy, but I have no doubt about this: it's the best way to improve the world around us."
