Apple and Newton.


Idea. A fascinating concept, has been around human being since we throw rocks around and hunt fishes. What are ideas? how do we come up with ideas? Why do we have ideas? lets go step by step.

1. What are ideas?
Idea is just concept and thoughts in your mind. Or it can be a principle, opinion or plan. However in my definition, it is a thought, opinion or plan to do/solve something.

How do we come up with ideas.
According to creativebits.org, there are few steps toward ideas. Research, brainstorm , random association, changes of perspective.

Research can range from Google search to the underground cave in your home. Basically anywhere that can give you information.

Brainstorm- Now there are few painful/ awesome method toward this approach. There are cloudy brain storming, black and white brainstorming, extreme color brainstorming ( basically you put your ideas into pictures and stick it on a giant piece of paper), sharp pin brainstorming ( pin every idea on to a board). There are more, but I'm just too lazy to list it out.

Why do we have ideas?
According to room 207 North Hall MSV IIT, who I have no idea who they are, some ideas are form in emergency situation. For instance, if I was chase by a gigantic black bear in ( whatever state those things are in).  I didn't bring any 22 caliber with me
