without preconceptions, sometimes called a process of lateral
thought. The catchphrase has become widely used in management either in business to create to
advertising slogans or in education such as allowing the students to discover
their own new experiences.

to develop problem-solving skills whereas to develop independence of person.
2. Simple Thinking
Outside the Box
There are simple thinking outside the box, according to
Kihn (1980s) tried to challenge the power of mind. The challenge that prepared
by Kihn is to connect the nine dots by drawing four straight, continuous lines,
and never lifting the pencil from the paper. That puzzle is easily solved, if we
think from a different perspective.
3. Importance of Thinking Outside the Box
Thinking outside the box is to imprison our ideas and
mind power. Although, we get too comfortable with conventional concepts, we
must shake ourselves vigorously to escape them.
3.1. To develop positive attitude-curiosity
This process thinking make people want to know all of
things to gain knowledge. Therefore, a creative person who using thinking
outside the box technique will push for new paradigms which to get out of
general habit of thinking. In that case, the curious person’s questioning
attitude toward life is a positive one and efficient person. Therefore, we may
ask the same question of different people to get out and compare answers. Finally,
we can look deeply into areas of knowledge. Much creativity arises from
variations of knowledge or combination of more knows ledges.

The person who always thinks outside the box has will be
able to solve the problems in the highest skills. Thus, the creative thinker

unwanted problems provide ways to solutions. Therefore, we are conscious of the

4. Problems in
Thinking Outside the Box
An effective thinking outside the box is creative
thinking but there are a number of factors, which may distort this process. If
we were to check at each stage of the following process, we might to be able to
minimize these barriers.
4.1. Psychological blocks
There are some solutions or opinions
are not considered or are rejecting simply because our reaction to them that
does not make sense. Nevertheless, out of the ordinary solutions may be useful
or efficient if they solve a problem well or save our life. Psychological
blocks prevent us from doing something just because it unreasonable things.
4.2. Functional fixation
This
may be a significant factor limit of terms of its name rather is term of what
it can do. The creative thinker see a feather duster not just as a device for
cleaning a furniture from dusts, but
that it might be useful for clearing spider webs from the ceiling.
However, the ordinary people are limited in their experience to concise their
thinking outside the box.
