Ever try to tell someone about an idea and it the process it seems to grow at an alarming rate? Ideas have a tendency to quickly spawn new ideas at a rapid pace, but only when your mind starts to think about them and the possibilities.

Just having ideas and encouraging them to grow will help you gain an entire arsenal of fresh ideas. You might not get a chance to try them all, but you will certainly be prepared if one of them doesn’t work out as well as you planned.

Using your mind for developing concepts and ideas takes a bit of practice. The amount of ideas that you can generate are up to you, as is the quality of them. You won’t always get all winners, but you will certainly be able to get a good number of them. Honestly you really only need one of them to take off, so don’t stress out to much if you can’t quickly come up with a great idea right off the bat.

Two ways to help your ideas expand quickly is to tell somebody about it or write it down. These both force you to think about the idea. More neurons will fire off and more connections will be made. So the next time you are not sure exactly what you want to do with your idea, tell somebody about it. Draw it out and use your brain. That is what you have it for after all.
