Here are 3 ways to become an original thinker and champion your ideas

If you think original thinkers were confident since the beginning, you are wrong. Original thinkers also have self-doubt, full of fears of failing. What sets them different from us is how they manage the stress. Self-doubt is contagious but it also motivates you to think of worst case scenarios. When you are in doubt, don’t let it go and think improve on it. Fear of failing is obvious but fear of trying is suicide. Our biggest regrets are failing to try. So, reason out yourself and come out of self-doubt.

The important thing is to have an idea, whether it is bad or good. You are not going to get judged on your bad ideas. People are afraid of embarrassing themselves and looking stupid. But, Originals have lots of bad ideas but the greatest originals are the ones who fail the most, because they're the ones who try the most. The more output you churn out, the more variety you get and the better your chances of stumbling on something truly original. If we want to be more original, we have to generate more ideas.
