Saquémoslo de la rutina.

Innovation and creative thinking are fundamental skills that can be cultivated by consciously breaking routines and automatic habits. The human brain, with its incredible ability to form new connections, needs fresh and diverse stimuli to generate truly innovative ideas. Understanding how our habits can hinder or enhance our creativity is the first step to developing more innovative thinking.
Why can habits be the enemy of innovation?
Habits are mental shortcuts that our brain develops to optimize repetitive tasks. While this is useful for everyday activities such as brushing our teeth, autopilot can limit our ability to:
- Establish new neural connections
- Detect novel patterns
- Generate original ideas
- Find creative solutions
How does autopilot work in our brain?
The brain creates neural pathways that are strengthened by repetition, similar to applications installed on a computer. More than 50% of our daily actions are unconscious, executed without active reflection.
What can we learn from the great innovators?
Charles Darwin devoted 30 years to multiple simultaneous projects, from geology to psychology. This multidisciplinary approach allowed him to discover unexpected connections that led to his theory of evolution.
Steve Jobs, for his part, took calligraphy lessons out of sheer curiosity, which years later would influence the revolutionary design of the Mac interface.
How can we stimulate innovative thinking?
What everyday changes can trigger our creativity?
- Taking alternative routes to work or usual places
- Exploring cuisine from unfamiliar cultures
- Listening to different genres of music than usual
- Modify work routines and work spaces.
What are the benefits of stepping out of our comfort zone?
- Increased attention to the environment
- Discovery of new perspectives
- Innovative mental connections
- Development of creative solutions
How do we implement change in our routine?
The key is to identify a specific habit to change and commit to doing something completely new. This conscious change activates our brain and allows us to see patterns and opportunities that previously went unnoticed.
Innovative thinking requires keeping our brains active and receptive to new experiences. Breaking out of routine and automatic habits not only enriches our daily lives, but also enhances our ability to generate original and valuable ideas that can be transformed into meaningful innovations.

Throughout our lives, our neurons are strongly linked the more we do routines or habits. That is why it is difficult to change the opinion of an older person. You need something called synaptic plasticity that happens very easily in children.
25.-Tips for innovating thinking

Habits and routine are the enemies of innovative thinking.
Habit: something we do automatically without reflection. When we repeat it over and over again. A shortcut. Be careful about always having the autopilot on because when it’s on you are not paying attention, you’re not creating new connections in your brain.
–
Tips to start paying attention:
- Take a new route.
- Try new food.
- Listen music from countries and cultures that you don’t always listen to.
- What can you do differently to make your work less repetitive?

One new thing I can try next week is listening to a podcast from a topic I’ve never heard of before.
This week I think I can do exercise on the morning rather than in the afternoon
Play paintball with friends.

How often do you try something completely new? Mmmm, once a month 😦

a) toma una nueva ruta; b) ve a restaurantes y revise la comida de lugares que realmente no conoce, culturas o paises que no conoce; c) escuchar musica de paises y culturas que no escuchas; d) trabaja de forma diferente para que no sea tan repetitivo?

My last year, I was focused on my job, establishing a routine day by day, It didn’t let me have time for other things different from my role.
Right now I’m retaking my studies, skilling myself in a new area and I reset my mindset in a new perspective:
- All is new, I don’t know anything, let’s try it.
Gracias
It is insane to do the same thing over and over again expecting different results. I think Einstein said that
"Si siempre haces lo que siempre has hecho, siempre obtendrás lo que siempre obtuviste"
👌🏻
Consejos para empezar a prestar atención:
Toma una nueva ruta.
Prueba comida nueva.
Escuche música de países y culturas que no siempre escucha.
¿Qué puede hacer de manera diferente para que su trabajo sea menos repetitivo?
¿Con que frecuencia intentas algo completamente nuevo?
Los hábitos y la rutina son enemigos del pensamiento innovador.
Hábito: algo que hacemos automáticamente sin reflexionar. Cuando lo repetimos una y otra vez. Un atajo. Tenga cuidado de tener siempre el piloto automático encendido porque cuando está encendido no está prestando atención, no está creando nuevas conexiones en su cerebro.
How often do you try something completely new? Make exercise all de days
