Abstract

This is an extremely close relationship between innovative thinking and non logical thinking. By adopting the method of studying the innovative thinking and its process, and taking innovative thinking as a reference object to study non logical thinking, it can be seen that the key to innovative thinking is non logical thinking such as instinct, inspiration, realization, etc. Many people may believe that non logical thinking cannot be cultivated as it is inborn talent; or they may consider that although non logical thinking can be cultivated, effective methods are hard to find. These view points are wrong, as the essence of non logical thinking is a thinking process which arrives at a conclusion without sufficient material premise. To cultivate non logical thinking capability, is actually to get into the thinking habit of arriving at a conclusion without sufficient material premise. As a saying goes: mans second nature is formed by habits. Non logical thinking capability can be cultivated effectively.
