About this listen

 In this episode, we dive into how to come up with better solutions once you've identified a clear problem. Drawing from David Deutsch’s ideas and critical rationalism, I explain how creativity works—through conjecture and criticism—and how we often limit our own options without realizing it. We explore three common creativity-blocking mistakes: 1) Assuming there's only one solution, 2) Believing certain limitations can't be overcome and 3) Thinking in terms of compromise or zero-sum tradeoffsTimestamps00:00 Intro00:32 Today's topic00:51 How creativity works02:14 What we can do to optimize our creativity03:41 Examples of how we hinder our creativity03:58 Example 1: Conditioned laziness04:30 Mistake 2: Imagined constraints06:05 Mistake 3: Unnecessary compromises10:09 OutroFeatured linksMy upcoming book: https://edwindoit.com/4actsThe Beginning of Infinity: https://www.thebeginningofinfinity.com/Conjecture Institute: https://www.conjectureinstitute.org/More from meBook: https://edwindoit.com/4actsWebsite: https://edwindoit.comNewsletter: https://edwindoit.substack.comProductivity blog: / edwindoit X: https://x.com/Edwindoit
