The Benefits of China's Traditional Thinking and Innovative Thinking

The influence of China's traditional way of thinking on innovative spirit; China's traditional way of thinking directly affects people's innovative spirit and innovative ability. China's traditional way of thinking, which is characterized by emphasizing overall unity, intuitive experience, advocating the golden mean and inward intention, has made great contributions to the creation of the splendid civilization of the Chinese nation. However, it has many weaknesses, such as being closed and conservative, ignoring individuality and rationality. To a great extent, it has inhibited the innovative spirit and ability of the Chinese nation. On the basis of critically inheriting China's traditional way of thinking and drawing lessons from the advantages of western way of thinking, this paper proposes to establish a way of thinking that is rich in individual independence, scientific rationality and diversity, activate the spirit of innovation and accelerate the pace of innovation.
