Part 3: How to Organize the Ideas Worth Pursuing

April 2, 2011 by Farnoosh Brock

This article is part of a 3-series. Go here for Part 2 and Part 1.

If a cluttered desk signs a cluttered mind, of what, then, is an empty desk a sign?
~ Albert Einstein.

They say that geniuses do their best work amidst chaos and commotion. They say there is nothing orderly about prodigy minds and serious thinkers.

I tend to believe it. I mean, have you seen the desks, the white boards, or the working quarters of the most brilliant minds in history? It’s anything but organized! And it is not just the brains of a genius that produce brilliance in mayhem and mess. Our minds too seem to be far from orderly. Why is it that the most irrelevant thoughts and most unusual ideas come to us in the least likely circumstances and why do we go blank when we actively ask our brain to think and participate? Does order kill creativity? Does chaos bring out brilliance? Is our obsession with organization really just a way to distract ourselves from our real work in life?

Part 2: How to Capture the Ideas Worth Pursuing

March 29, 2011 by Farnoosh Brock

Ideas Captured in a Book

This article is part of a 3-series. Go here for Part 1 and Part 3.

Ideas are born of your freedom to live life on your own terms, of creativity and of a desire to do things in your own way. Ideas are proofs to your independence as a thinker and a doer. Ideas fuel your self-confidence and fill up your desire to express yourself. Ideas are the seeds of great things in your life and can grow to sustain your ideal life if you capture and nurture them.

So to good ideas, you must hold on, just as you would to a long lost friend, to a special memory, or your own childhood work of art (I have all of one drawing that made it from my childhood, thanks to my sweet cousin who kept it from 30 years ago but I digress). With the right cues and questions, you will uncover those brilliant ideas from the sea of many that hit you in the course of the day — or for those of you with an overactive imagination, in one hour.

Part 1: How to Recognize an Idea Worth Pursuing

March 23, 2011 by Farnoosh Brock

Ideas into Action - and writing in the sand

This article is part of a 3-series. Go here for Part 2 and Part 3.

Ideas are a dime a dozen. Everyone has them. Things we should do; things we should stop doing. Or things we could be doing, creating, producing, changing, enhancing, trying, living, or just dreaming. It does not take a special person to think of ideas. Even little kiddies have ideas — mostly bad ones with consequence but they do have ideas.

A healthy, functioning brain and body has thoughts, desires, opinions, aspirations, and oh yes, emotions. The thought of going through a day without a single idea is unimaginable to me. I have a hard time keeping track of mine, and you know what? [Read more…] about Part 1: How to Recognize an Idea Worth Pursuing
