Lateral thinking, a term coined by Edward de Bono, a Maltese psychologist, physician and writer, is a technique of problem Lsolving. To approach problems indirectly at diverse angles,instead of concentrating on one approach at length, is lateral thinking.
Trying harder in the same direction may not be as useful as changing direction. Thinking or talking about a familiar subject, over and over again, means following the same old neuronal path. Unless the cells are forced to find unfamiliar neurons or new parts of cells, they will stick to known paths. You exercise the same cell connections, while you are in a familiar place with familiar people, listening to known subjects. Introducing something new will enhance the properties of neural circuits, improving their processing speed. So, try a new approach, the next time you solve Sudoku… like, now!
