Why not !?

I once came up with a simple strategy to develope ideas and figure out solutions. When you are confronted with plans of others or yourself which sound highly unlikely, the common response is: <<This sound complicated, why should this work?>>  But your chances of succeeding are much higher when you try to figure out why your plan should not work.

This very small change in your point of view can help to be much more open minded. Worked for me.
