Writing down ten ideas a day. This “exercise” of my idea muscle, with just a few months, completely rewired my brain to start thinking more creatively.
James… This is the second time I’ve come across you recommending this on the internet. I’m taking that as a sign. I’m interested in your process for the “10 ideas”. Do you hand write a new list each day? Do you use a spreadsheet, word doc? I’d like to try your “exercise” but would like to have a system in place to catalogue the ideas.
This one rang true for me, whenever I write down a couple of ideas, the ideas just won’t stop, and I ride that high for the rest of the day.
I’m curious on how well it works when done intentionally, and for a prolonged period. I’m going to implement this as a habit over the holidays, and see how it goes.
For those interested, I found this article from James on his own website where he talks at length about this idea and provides details around implementing it: The Ultimate Guide for Becoming an Idea Machine

FYI, he wrote a book in which he describes his process. You want chapter 16: “How to Become and Idea Machine.”
I’m also interested.
