I started out at my last company (over a decade ago) able to be creative and resolve tense situations and technical snafus with total carte blanche. But due to several company merges, the last five years found my creativity shut down in lieu of taking direction (with no input allowed) for day to day operations. I turned my brain off and just waited as the layoffs got closer and closer to me. Now that I am free again, I found this book a great help in kick starting my brain. After reading it I decided I would take a "Roman Holiday" - just spend the summer doing what I want to do before I choose a "job" or "career" to go back to. I am taking all sorts of classes - music, writing, painting, investing (so I do not waste any money and do not stress out about having the summer off), meditation, tai chi. I read through this book once. Now I am taking a page a day, and journaling my own thoughts to what I have read. What I am finding out is that I am birthing a different person from a month ago, a year ago, a decade ago. And that new person will have something fun and wonderful to offer in the new work I choose that brings me joy. I highly recommend this book if you feel your creativity has abandoned you. Your mojo has not left you - it is just waiting for you to awaken it from a long nap and for you to start playing together again. Review: Creativity 101 - Flip the pages of this book and let yourself get surprised with the amazing ideas, stories and evoking images that are going to put your brain to work. Inspirational and the kind of book that you should have in your work desk to let your imagination fly. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #245,386 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #454 in Systems & Planning #619 in Decision-Making & Problem Solving #2,553 in Happiness Self-Help | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (640) | | Dimensions | 4.88 x 0.39 x 6.97 inches | | ISBN-10 | 1591841216 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1591841210 | | Item Weight | 6.4 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 144 pages | | Publication date | March 10, 2006 | | Publisher | Portfolio | ## Images ![Whatever You Think, Think the Opposite - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61elVfvHi0L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It is never too late to be creative and live your dreams *by T***A on May 3, 2011* Pushing sixty and laid off from my last job of a decade made me put things into perspective.

Inspirational and the kind of book that you should have in your work desk to let your imagination fly. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Creativity Trigger. Antidote for Overthinking. *by J***C on January 24, 2021* I have given this book to so many people that I know who our artists and creative thinkers, and even some business people who could use a little jumpstart to get them “out of the box” so to speak. This is a great little reference book to keep by your bedside or somewhere you might pick up and just read a page at a time on any given day. It is full of useful and often hilarious anecdotes which will help you see things from different perspectives and build confidence in your own creativity, business acumen, and even your social skills. I also recommend that you purchased Paul Arden’s other book—“It’s not how good you are, it’s how good you want to be”. I consider that book to be the sibling of this one and having both of them will just double your happiness! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/3776302-whatever-you-think-think-the-opposite](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/3776302-whatever-you-think-think-the-opposite) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-17*
