Why bad ideas are good



Sometimes when I need to brainstorm on projects I get upset when I can’t think of any ideas that are good or worth using. I used to get frustrated about this. Why can’t I think of anything good? Why are all these ideas so bad?


Well the truth is that bad ideas can actually be good. The point is that I need to get my brain going. I need to get into a creative state of mind. And even if I fail at the task at hand it’s ok. As Thomas Edison said:
“I have not failed 10,000 times. I have not failed once. I have succeeded in proving that those 10,000 ways will not work. When I have eliminated the ways that will not work, I will find the way that will work.”


What do you guys do to brainstorm and get your creativity flowing?
