He then asked those creative architects to tell him what they do from the moment they wake up to the moment they go to bed. He then went to the uncreative architects—without perhaps explaining that’s why he was talking to them—and asked them the same thing. Then he compared the two. He discovered two differences, and neither was to do with intelligence. Creative -knew how to play (child-like traits) & deferred decisions UNeasy feeling when a problem is unresolved.
