Episode 48 | Suffering from functional fixedness , My Entrepreneur Academia, and can COVID-19 be a good thing

Functional Fixedness is something that academics use to explain when people are unable to think outside the box that is given to them for whatever reason.

The following comes from my opinion after reading a chapter from the book The Creator's Code: The six essential skills of Extraordinary Entrepreneurs. This book was recommended to me by the Coursera course Developing the entrepreneurial mindset. It is a must-read for aspiring entrepreneurs. This book goes into detail about how successful and unsuccessful entrepreneurs solved problems in their businesses. The concept of Functional Fixedness is used in the "The Candlelight Problem " Where someone is unable to see how they can solve a problem in another way.

Tonight's Podcast I tried to explain my understanding from perception. I do recommend you to read this book and find out more on your own and not just my own.
