1. Observe the environment and the people around you. How they reach to things that you do.
2. Network with people who don't look, think, act or dress like you. Talking with opposites inevitably sparks new ideas, new insights and ultimately corrects a course, individual or societal.
3. Experiment with the world by personally trying out new things, taking stuff apart or doing things differently that you've been repetitively doing day in and day out.
4. Ask more questions. Question the world with inquiries that provokes the status quo, that get under the hood of a situation, that open unexpected new directions that never emerged before. "Question the unquestionable" and see what kind of drift surfaces. Then of course correct and keep the ship from sinking.
