That's a tough question. Honestly a lot of engineers can't think uniquely enough because they don't know how all that stuff works. Most are book taught instead of hands on educated.
My father was an engineer and I loved taking things apart.
So if you want to learn some mechanical engineering I would do three things:
WARNING: Do not poke around inside CRT TVs or monitors unless you want to die. Capacitors in large appliances will injure or kill you. Not even joking. Learn what a capacitor is before you take anything apart. Little capacitors can't do much but the larger ones can. Hell some little ones will scare the fuck out of you. Like the ones in disposable cameras. They will make you take a tinkle in your shorts.
They also make a kickass book that is almost better than their website.
Bonus: Check out /r/askscience and /r/machineporn and check out popular science then popular mechanics.
Bonus 2: Physics and mechanical games.
How Stuff Works
Love those books.
Depending on how old you are if you saw it growing up, it could have been [The Way Things Work] (https://www.amazon.com/New-Way-Things-Work/dp/0395938473) or possibly the How Stuff Works [book itself] (https://www.amazon.com/How-Stuff-Works-Marshall-Brain/dp/0785824324/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1491399864&sr=1-1&keywords=how+stuff+works)
The book How Stuff Works (or a similar book).
