Ideas
Posted 6th March 2010 at 11:58 PM by Jeremy Morgan
Every single great thing in the world started with an idea. Whether born of necessity or something someone did for fun, it started with an idea. It may have been an idea that built on another idea, or thousands of ideas. Everything from the wheel to a multicore processor started from an idea.
So where do you get your ideas from? And more importantly, what do you do with them?
I'm a person who undoubtedly has ADD. And one of the benefits of this is tons of ideas flowing through my head daily. At one point, I decided to grab a notebook and write them down. Every time I had an idea of any type I wrote it down, whether it was business, something I should do to my car, or a new way to do the dishes. I scribbled it down.
I filled up that notebook in about 6 months, and have since started a couple more. Obviously I can't act on every single idea in the book, but at least they're in there. And when I'm looking for inspiration or something new to think about, I review it. In these books could be an idea that changes the world, or at least changes my life.
So write down your ideas. Even if they're simple, or you think they're dumb. You'll write down dumb ideas, you'll write down great ideas. you'll write down the possible and the impossible, things you'll do and things you'll never do. But rather than being a simple fleeting thought they'll at least land somewhere. And you or someone else may take that and turn it into some thing great.
A pad of paper and pen is an investment of less than $2. You'll get into the habit of carrying it around and use it for other things too. But it just may change your life. Try it.
