About
Good ideas do not come from looking forward or back, rather they come from looking left and right, to what is adjacent to us. Johnson builds on Stuart Kauffman's concept of the 'adjacent possible' to reaffirm that tomorrow's great innovations are built from the stuff of today specifically from the things around us that can be combined into something new.As a message, innovation patterns steps should be simply followed together. Go for a free walk while cultivating many hunches; write immediately everything down as brain storming while keeping all your folders messy. Search for valuable new things in spite of making mistakes and increase your outing, mingling, and coffeehouses and get help of many liquid networks. Finally, let others build on your ideas by borrowing ways and recycling old facts to reach invention.“Creativity is Contagious. Pass it on.”
