I love this! Some of the steps in the rookie mindset, like reversing your opinion or zooming out, really align with the SCAMPER design thinking methodology, which I often use when I want to dissect a problem and make sure I'm looking beyond the surface level.
Love this connection, SCAMPER is a great parallel. Both are like mental playgrounds: structured enough to push thinking forward, but open enough to spark real insight. I think of the rookie mindset as more emotional than methodological, it’s not just about generating ideas, it’s about becoming someone who questions, zooms out, and resists the easy answer. But the overlap is real. Might need to do a remix issue one day: “Design Thinking for Your Mindset.” 👀
