1, to look at and think about things with the thinking of "seeking differences" is to consciously pay more attention to the differences and particularities of objective things in our study, work and life. Do not stick to the rules, do not believe in authority, and treat all things and phenomena with suspicion and criticism.

2. Consciously think in the opposite direction to conventional thinking. If we regard traditional ideas, established experience and authoritative remarks as golden rules, it will often hinder our innovative thinking activities. Therefore, in the face of new problems or problems that can't be solved for a long time, don't get used to thinking about problems along the long-established and inherent ideas of our predecessors or ourselves, but look for solutions from the opposite direction.

3. Look at and analyze problems with divergent thinking. Divergent thinking is the core of innovative thinking, and its process is to start from a certain point and diverge at will, which has neither a certain direction nor a certain scope. Divergent thinking can produce many alternative schemes, methods and suggestions, and can put forward some unique and unexpected opinions, so that some seemingly insoluble problems can be solved.

4. Active and effective use of association is a method often used in innovative thinking, and it is easier to see the effect. We often say that association is "experience association". There is a certain connection between everything, which is the objective basis for people to adopt association. Therefore, the most important association method is to actively find the connection between things and think about the connection between them actively, positively and consciously.

5. Learn to integrate and look at the macro-many of us are good at "saying things", or what we see is what we think, and our thinking is often limited to a certain field. Integration is a way of thinking that unifies the understanding of all aspects, parts and attributes of things into a whole, so as to grasp the essence and laws of things.
