How to stop filtering your new ideas

What stops most people from creating big, new ideas is not a lack of talent.

It’s a lack of confidence.

I have found that many people have wonderful new ideas and solutions but filter these before they have a chance to be expressed.

I know this because participants in brainstorming sessions will often say at the end i also had this idea.

When I ask them why didn’t they mention it they sometimes reply — I thought that people might find the idea too radical or silly or……..

To overcome this in the Ideas Blitz process I ask participants to try and generate 9 ideas in 2 minutes.

I call this the Magic Formula.

It is the starting formula in the Ideas Blitz 5 steps process.

The other steps are enhance, connect, evaluate and action.

Because most believe they cannot do it (but they can) and they are amazed at the creativity of their ideas after the 2 minute period.

Why 2 minutes?

Through trial and error I found 2 minutes to be the shortest possible time to start solving a problem.

Why 9 ideas?

I found when I started that the highest that anyone could achieve in 2 minutes was 9 ideas.

When you put these dimensions together you have built a magic formula of creativity.

People who use the Ideas Blitz tool literally have no time to filter their own ideas.

They just create, solve and allow their unconscious to roam free for a few minutes.

Try it.

Join the thousands of people around the globe that are Blitzing rather than having another meeting or brainstorming session.

It’s fast, energising and will help you and your group to make more progress in a shorter period of time.
