A Beautiful Mind

This is a forward-looking mind test. Dropping back into the days when phone booths were the only alternative to the desk telephone. You are the president of a company that makes phone booths. Recently you witness that your closest rival has begun to whittle away at your market share. Desperately, you ask the people under your chair to get you some thoughtful and innovative ideas.

  1. Your manager suggests of laying air-conditioned phone booths.
  2. The Consultant advises to add meters that tell how much a call costing.
  3. The executive says, why not put note pads in phone booths so that masses won't write on the walls and windows.
  4. Finally, your engineer proposes you to start making phone booths with wheels.


Phew…Quickly think of the most benefited and modern idea to approach:

I know what you think of - The phone booth on wheels. Because it's the craziest.


After all, what's the difference between a phone booth on wheels and a car with a mobile phone?


Now, today if we can think of Intellectual Communication or Telepathy with a silicon chip inserted in a human brain which can emit waves sending our thoughts through messages from one person to the other without mobile phones, what’s the big deal?


Start today by steering people away from the ordinary and make them think wild about the possibilities. In a word, “Attitude” - to develop a big tolerance for the outrageous.


Enough talk. Go on, now. I felt the need to say something, so I’ve said it. Now you’ve heard it.
