– Dr. Seuss
I have been known to come up with some pretty crazy ideas while brainstorming. While many of them are foolish, impractical, idiotic or insane, throwing crazy ideas on the table often sparks something magical, and opens hidden doors to unseen possibilities. Sometimes, situations have us so tied up in knots that our only hope is to throw out our known repertoire of solutions and try something “crazy.” There are so many possibilities that we never even consider. If you’re stuck, throw out all the rules, abandon your pride, and think with finger paints. Get messy! Abandon all restraint! Smear ideas together, and if you don’t like the results, you can ball the whole thing up, throw it away, and begin anew.
