Humans are all somewhat capable of becoming great innovators. That is to say figuring out a way to do something once they intend to do it. Every person is born with this innovative spirit, sure some more than others, I am certain I got some innovator genes along the way. But even if you did not get an extra dose of innovator genes with a little work you can become a world-class innovator too.

We all agree that genetically speaking there is virtually no percentage difference between Sir Isaac Newton and you. You can train yourself to think like him and other great men in history if you choose to and feel that is indeed your calling; you can become anything that you want to; it is not that difficult at all.

Anyone with practice can become a great innovator and we become what we think about most. If you wish to become an innovator all you need to do is to commit yourself to think. Do not allow your thoughts to be troubled by societal norms or political correctness. Look outside in every aspect of life and consider all the problems and potential solutions and all the ramification of each of these solutions and possible ways to over come those.

You can think of it like a chessboard; make a move in your mind and then counter that move from every possible direction with every possible dilemma and determine how to overcome and adapt to each situation, eventually you will find you can make fewer moves faster in problem solving. You see I know you can become a better innovator, I am just wondering why you dont. Consider all this in 2006.
