159 Facts and Snippets of Trivia

No comments :
A collection of 159 random tidbits of trivia. No particular subject set or theme. So enjoy!




I, as well as the original list compiler state that the facts have been checked to some degree (if at all) so the validity of all of them is suspect as well as completely open to change and new discovery. That being said however it still makes a great conversation piece even if just to discuss and show the debunked myth or common misconception.

No comments :
A great collection of one-liners, groaners, parables and general food for thought paragraphs. The general philosophical inclinations varies quite wildly from cosmic pondering inducing to groan worthy lines worthy of an old joke book. None the less it's a great collection.

Four Creative Thinking Heuristics

No comments :


If creativity involves manipulating ideas, what are the different methods available which would help us come up with ideas to be tested?


Here we present some heuristics that might be helpful.


Creative Thinking - An Example Creative Thinking Process

No comments :


There is of course no precise procedure that would guarantee creativity. But the following informal procedure is indeed useful, even though it seems rather simple.


The Three Basic Princibles of Creativity

No comments :

For many people, creativity is something reserved for scientists or artists. But this is to ignore the fact that we are faced with countless problems in our daily life, and it is precisely creative thinking that helps us come up with solutions to these problems. We need to make use of our creativity whether we are thinking about how to earn more money or how to make our our loved ones happier.


Many people also seem to think that creativity is a matter of waiting for inspirations. How inspiring ideas come about is however regarded as a rather mysterious process, and it is just a fact that some people are more creative than others. But it would be a mistake to think that creativity is a passive state of mind. While it is true that there is no special algorithm for creativity, there are thinking skills that can be taught and things one can do to enhance one's creativity. But to begin with, we need to understand these three basic principles that underlie creativity.
