Practise 360 Degree Thinking

Develop your writing by using multiple perspectives

Imagine that you live in a round-house on the top of a hill. Every window looks out to a different view. When you look out of one window you can see the coastline and that makes you feel a specific emotion of being by the sea, which is the inspiration for your next Pirate novel.

Hindsight: This is the ability to understand an event after it has happened. For this type of thinking pattern, the writer will need to look at his completed work and then review it like a reader, trying to be as critical about its presentation and content.

Foresight: This is the ability to predict what will happen or what will be needed in the future. In this way of thinking the writer will need to envision the several ways and directions, he can utilize the information he has in order to create the article.

Insight: This refers to the capacity to gain an accurate and deeper understanding of a person or of an event or something else of importance. The article written by the author should be as accurate as possible, based on the likes and dislikes of his readers. In order to sell more copies of novels or…
