Idea muscle

My best ideas come from a combo of:

  • Publish something daily (done since 2017)
  • Carry a paper list instead of a phone
  • Write (vs generate) your own words
  • Read on paper instead of digital
  • Speak to target audience often
  • Have 1 focus (‘no’ to the rest)
  • Have 1 strategy (refine it)
  • Practice daily (skills)

Whatever makes them pop out for you, work it out and do it often.

It’s a muscle worth training.
