Critical Thinking; Attributes of Creative Thought

Creative Thinking is a learned skill especially focused on the professions of law, medicine, architecture and planning. Creative thinking and systems thinking are the yin and yang of thoughtfulness; apparently conflicting but actually complementary. Creative thinking is about organic free-form exploration and associative ideating. Systems thinking is about structure and discipline. Like the duality of yin and yang, when practiced correctly, systems and creative thought are complementary and mutually reinforcing.
