“Play Is The Highest Form Of Research” ~ Einstein

Among the best creative activities is brainstorming - which can be an enjoyable and highly productive form of play. When we’re playing, we are far more open to all possibilities. Assumptions about our limitations fall away.

Einstein said, “Play is the highest form of research.” And Emerson said, “It is a happy talent to know how to play.”

Play in the form of brainstorming teaches us to think synergistically - and have fun in the process. How you do at brainstorming most likely has everything to do with how playful you allow yourself to be.

What kind of brainstormer are you? Can you relax and appear to be foolish as if you’re playing - all in service of better or more creative thinking - and for just having fun?
