Ahas and Insights

Ahas or insights are the sudden comprehension that takes place when you pay attention to something differently. Borrowing part of a Mark Twain quote, an aha or insight is the sudden union of ideas which, before their union, were not perceived to have any relationship.

Ahas and insights are the holy grail of problem-solving and the essence of creativity or thinking out of the box.

Ahas and insights should not be confused with paradigms and mindsets. They are completely different. Ahas can be a catalyst leading to a shift in paradigm or mindset, and they can spin off a shift in mindset, but the two are different and should not be confused with each other.

At DIG Coaching, we are all about ahas. We excavate them daily.  For grins and giggles, take our Aha Test to experience the power of an aha and see how you do.
