Creative and critical thinking

 August 3, 2025

I came across an interesting video on social media that claimed Richard Branson started an airline with no money. The video explained how his creative thinking, persistence, and perseverance enabled him to achieve this. While I can’t verify the authenticity of the story, the explanation offered feels both promising and plausible.

I’m certainly not inspired to start my own airline, but it does reinforce my belief that critical and creative thinking can help you achieve almost anything. Often, we lose our way because the power of creative thinking is underestimated, overshadowed by market forces, which declares such thinking to be illusory or even delusional. Creativity often seems like it comes from a hypothetical world born of wild imagination.

Yet, the sci-fi films of the past imagined technologies and ideas that have now become reality. Today’s world is a manifestation of those creative thinkers who dared to dream. Creative and critical thinking draw power from the universe, whether through the law of attraction or simply by the force of belief.

What’s required is faith in your own thinking. Don’t question your imagination. Have patience, keep pursuing your vision, and success will eventually follow.
