45. BREAK
WITH THE OLD PATTERNS / RULES TO
CREATE NEW ONES

46. “Sudden bursts of insight - the Aha! or
Eureka! moment - come when brain
activity abruptly shifts its focus. The
almost ecstatic sense that makes us
cry “I see!” appears to come when the
brain is able to shunt aside immediate
or familiar visual inputs.”
MARK JUNG-BEEMAN'S LAB, NORTHWESTERN,
EDGE.ORG

47. THE MYTH
BREAKTHROUGH LEADERSHIP &
INNOVATION IS ABOUT “GETTING” NEW
IDEAS / CONCEPTS

48. “It turns out that the ability
to stop oneself from
thinking something is
central to creativity.”
SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN, 2012

49. THE TRUTH
LETTING GO OF THE OLD PATTERNS THAT
BLOCK BREAKTHROUGH

50. “The difficulty lies not so much
in developing new ideas as in
escaping from old ones.”
