How do you know if your idea is worth it? Here I try to discover the difference between good and bad ideas, how to generate creative ideas, and why great ideas are built on strong foundations. Whether you're a creator, entrepreneur, artist, or innovator... understanding what makes an idea 'good' can change ways you think and work.
Using three peculiar analogies (including ants! the Bible! and art traditions), we explore how ideas evolve, why originality isn’t everything, and how to develop a system for storing and refining ideas effectively. Plus, I’ll share my personal techniques for brainstorming and creativity, including structured writing methods that help me capture and develop my ideas.
