Stay dumb, stay foolish and stay curious
What did I mean by that?
You could question why I'm asking you to stay foolish.
Why?
Since I couldn't find anyone foolish than this dude, I'm uploading his picture.
You should keep having dreams and asking yourself questions because things that were before unthinkable are now a reality. Very few people were willing to believe that we would be able to control machines with our natural speaking voices, that they would hear us, and that they would simplify our daily lives. And now we ask
Hey Siri "Did I lock the front door?"
When we become more familiar with something after being exposed to it. We will assume that is the way the world operates. Our curiosity will wane. Our inner child will grow up. As a child I was curious how my favourite actor in a movie quickly changes dress in the next scene, Why cars can't fly, Who is turning off the refrigerator's light when you close it. From these kind of stupid thoughts, we will get crazy ideas
Chester Greenwood, a fifteen-year-old, discovered a way to keep his ears toasty by using some wire and fabric. He made a significant advancement in cold weather protection with his idea.
Imagine Steve Jobs urged the R&D team to create a phone without a keypad, but the team responded that it was technically impossible.
When we encounter problems, we work to find a quick solution.
That will likely be a quick fix, Patchwork
Practicality will undoubtedly be at the centre of these quick fixes.
Implementation comes to our mind. We will think about the resources we have.
But kids don't care. They are unaware of why it is challenging.
They are not constrained by anything. They can draw pink elephants with wings

Most individuals don't have a particularly keen sense of the future or the transformative potential of a straightforward invention.
The majority of us believe that innovation is simply combining existing inventions.
Many tech influencers claim that technology has reached its full potential. Innovations have perished.
According to Charles H. Duell, who served as the Commissioner of the US Patent Office, "anything that can be invented has been created." It was the year 1899. With all the advancements since we might be able to make fun of him now.
The innovation potential is limitless.
Remember the futuristic family cartoon The Jetsons
The first episode of Jetson came in 1962.
Many of the technologies they predicted in the cartoon are already a reality, while others are maturing quickly. William Hanna's (Director of The Jetsons) dream and desire for art are truly manifested in the show.
When we initially entered the world, we shared similar aspirations and curiosities. As we age, logic weakens our ability to think.
Let's return there now.
Feel that frustration, Ask silly questions, Pay attention to the little things that we frequently neglect,
Before design thinking, we should empty our cups. Unlearn things and start from scratch, Stay dumb.
Ask Yourself
"How can I better understand the world?”
"How can I enhance people's lives?”
