Why Sketching Your Ideas Makes You a Better Problem Solver
Most creative blocks happen because ideas stay abstract. When you sketch, even roughly, you turn fog into form — and form is easier to work with.
Visual thinking helps you externalize ideas, see relationships, and reduce ambiguity.
Core Insight
You don’t sketch to make art — you sketch to make decisions. A rough drawing is often more useful than a polished plan.
How to Apply It (Step-by-Step)
- Start Rough — Draw simple shapes to represent your idea.
- Add Relationships — Connect shapes with arrows or labels.
- Refine — Redraw the sketch once you understand the structure.
Micro‑Challenge
Sketch your current idea using only circles, squares, and arrows. No details — just structure.
