Connect understanding of things, establish new connections, and generate new concepts

Identical, close, similar connections - establishing new connections, continuous leaps and bounds

Different, opposite, seemingly unrelated - establishing new connections, discontinuous leaps and bounds

Open your mind and imagine without restraint

Conception, imagination or even fantasy

Change the position and transplant the functions of different cognitive objects

Develop ideas and build bridges for innovation

Divide by path

Divided by function

By application

? ? ?

Process, transform and recombine the existing representations of things

Clarify goals and increase enthusiasm

Unintentional imagination

intentionally imagine

Things have a variety of properties and relationships, and different properties and relationships have different functions and effects

Reveal other properties and relationships that things may have, and seek other functions and roles that things may have

Based on known information, think from different angles and directions to seek diverse answers

Thinking about novelty and uniqueness is diffusion and radiation.

checklist method

information transfer law

Brainstorming

It can help people discover new problems and provide new ideas for problems to be solved.

①Thinking divergence technique

② Closely related to the amount of knowledge and experience, the level of practical ability, etc.

commensurability between different things

In order to reveal the connections between different things and grasp the overall development of things

Gradually guide a large amount of information into organized logical ideas in order to arrive at a logical solution to the problem.

Thinking about a target point from all directions, thinking about connections and commonalities, is convergence and concentration.

Logical thinking methods such as comparison, analysis, abstraction, induction, deduction, and synthesis.

Things are both different from each other and related to each other

Understand the relationship between the individuality and commonality of objects and its reflection in thinking activities

“divergence-convergence-divergence-convergence”

Divergent thinking and convergent thinking are the two wings of innovative thinking

Think about the opposite of the principles, components, and functional structures of things

Reverse the structural order of things

Transition to the existence state of things

Reverse the function of things

exchange of causal relationships

The reverse of reverse thinking is the reverse of rational thinking.

Think according to conventional ideas and the natural process of development of things

Break the unilateral restrictions and avoid rigidity and extreme thinking

Based on the historical and realistic grasp of the development of things

Dialectically negate existing empirical knowledge

Thinking is proactive

① There is the possibility of multi-directional changes in the future;

② There are correct and incorrect grasps of the laws of development of things;

③Things are affected by unpredictable factors.

People need to be based on practical activities and fully understand and grasp the laws of things.

Create favorable conditions to promote things to develop in a direction that is conducive to people's predictions.

The inherent contradiction of things is the internal driving force that promotes the development of things and determines the direction of their development;

Contradiction analysis method is a method of analyzing and resolving contradictions;

Make correct judgments and predictions about the development status and trends of things.

① To grasp the cause-and-effect relationship of the development of things, we need to use reasoning methods.

② It is necessary to use imagination and other thinking methods to make up for the lack of prerequisites.

No investigation, no right to speak.
