Method 1 - Use Analogies
Example of famous analogies that led to inventions
Cats - Cats eyes in the road
Spiders - Networks
Earthworms - New type of drilling
Dew drops on leave - Magnifying glass
Point 2 - See the familiar as strange.
Point 3 - Widen your relevance. Learn to unlearn.
Invention

Parking Meter - Journalist
Point 4-
Ask a lot of questions. Only through curiosity can we discover opportunities. And only by gambling can we take advantage of them.
Have persistence
A red clover contains less then 1/8th grain of sugar. 7000 grains make 1 pound of honey i.e. 56,000 clovers required. 1 clover means 60 flower tubes i.e. 33.60 lakhs. It secures sweetness for 1 pound of Honey.
