This is true all the time: Life Begins in The Womb of Thinking, hence there is a need to be a Creative Thinker.
Leaders THINK. They think and think. All failed or failing leaders don’t think at all or if they do, they don’t think CREATIVELY. Creative thinking brings in what was not into being, and brings what exists not into existence. The primary reason many companies and organizations are winding up (closing) in Nigeria is not because of the economy or resources but because of the dearth of CREATIVE FORWARD-THINKING managers cum leaders. The reason governments waste and other governments come to waste their turn is poor thinking. Sorry, perhaps blacks don’t think soundly, even some whites, talkless or disruptively.
For instance: 85% of 7.8 billion people on earth will vow to die than to think, 10% think they think without knowing they don’t, and only 5% think they will change their world, impact their organizations, and reinvent their genres. If all the resources in the world are shared equally by the 7 billion, 95% of non-thinkers will still return to poverty. The same holds for organizations.
Why?
Answer: let me answer you with a question which is higher wisdom; DO YOU, YOUR MANAGERS, LEADERS, EXCO, PEOPLE think? I mean think CREATIVELY: analytical, critical, horizontal, and vertical? Or do they CONCUR: I agree, exactly sir, definitely sir?
These kinds of people are the reason your organizations are dying, your branch managers/offices are not making good returns, your church branches are not growing, your sports club is not winning matches/tournaments, and on and on. Life begins in the mind [thinking] (Read my book: Dreams Never Die, It Fades: Refire & Live Your Life.)
