Secrets of successful collaboration: 47. see what is in front of you

Enhance your ability to tap into the unusual by seeing what is in front of you rather than what you think is in front of you. Judge ideas rationally, based upon their merits.

Focus upon "here and now" realities rather than "wherevers and whenevers" of generalised assumptions.
