The goal is to ultimately overcome cognitive fixedness and devise new and innovative ideas that solve the problems you
                 identified. At the end of this process, you will have some ideas to move forward.
                 Prototype
                 This is the stage where an idea becomes a real solution. A prototype is a simple experimental model for a proposed
                 solution. The prototype may not be perfect. The focus of the prototype is to quickly come up with a concrete version of
                 the idea and see how it will be accepted by consumers. This step isn’t about perfection, but rather, experimenting with
                 different ideas and seeing which parts work and which don't. Examples of prototypes include a website to test consumer
                 demand for products, a 3D printed product, etc.

                 Test
                 Once you have made a prototype solution available to consumers, you need to observe how they interact with it. During
                 this testing phase, you collect feedback about your work.

                 The design thinking process is iterative. At the end of the fifth stage, you may have to return to one or more stages. Perhaps
                 the test indicates that you need to develop another prototype, so, you will return to the fourth stage. Or maybe it turns out
                 that you misunderstood the needs of consumers, then, you need to go back to the early stages of the process.

                        Stanford University offers a course called ‘Designing Your Life’, which applies design thinking to
                        building a joyful career and life. This is one of the most popular courses!
