Answer this question to the best of your ability:
Can you provide an example scenario where the thinking block technique could be applied?
Sure, let's say you are trying to solve a problem at work, such as finding a way to increase sales. You have tried multiple strategies but none seem to be working. This is when the thinking block technique can be useful. You would first identify the issue (in this case, increasing sales) and then write down all the reasons why you cannot find a solution. Next, you would question each of these reasons, looking for hidden assumptions or new perspectives that may help you break through the thinking block. For instance, one reason might be "We don't have enough budget for marketing." By questioning this, you might realize there are creative ways to market your product without a large budget, leading you to find a solution and overcome the thinking block.
