\"\"Sometimes<\/strong> things take me a long time. a little while ago\u2026no about two weeks ago. Haha, see? I just caught myself being embarrassed about much time it takes me to get things done.\u00a0 oh my goodness, anyway, yes. Two weeks ago, I organized a brainstorm session for my project. I was a bit nervous about it, I find it hard sometimes to read a group when I\u2019m in the lead. Plus a brainstorm can just go in any direction. To prepare, I followed some advice from my teachers: come with a clear question, or a single point you\u2019d like inspiration on. Otherwise, you might end up with tons of ideas that don\u2019t even help you.<\/p>\n

So<\/strong>, I put out an invitation on Facebook, booked a classroom and got ready. Now, As simple as that sounds\u2026it took me several hours to do even this. There were so many little steps involved: checking peoples schedules to see when I had a greater chance of people showing up, check my schedule, pick a date and time\u2026write a little explanation\/invitation (in Dutch) and put it out there, read it at least a couple times for mistakes, book a room, make a little power point as an intro to the session etc. For me\u2026all these little steps are the hardest part. I\u2019m quite an introvert, plus I\u2019m suspecting a bit ADD. So each little task, combined with the communicating\/coordinating aspects, just feels monumental to me. It feels like I\u2019m wading through cement or something.<\/p>\n

But anyway\u2026. the brainstorm.
\nI had a good size group, and it ended up being really fun and encouraging! You know, sometimes it\u2019s scary to ask for (creative) help, as cliche as this sounds. But I think it\u2019s especially hard to share your ideas with others. Ideas are really precious things, and for me, there is definitely a time to share and a time not to. In the past, I\u2019ve shared ideas when they were still fresh\u2026and kinda nebulous. I\u2019ve learned now, that I need to wait until the idea is more solidified in my brain before I try to give words to it. Once I have the words, then I usually share it with a few people close to me\u2026then I\u2019ll share it with a wider group.<\/p>\n

But.<\/strong> Once an idea is ready to be put out there, you need to just do it. It helps so much! And it\u2019s pretty exciting. During the brainstorm, it was so encouraging to hear people discuss my idea, add their own ideas, and give me feedback. I left feeling more confident and also inspired about where my project is going. When you see other people believe in your idea, it makes it so<\/strong> much easier to believe in it yourself.
\nAt the end, I left with tons of inspiration, and so much <\/strong>to go through and process\u2026as you can see from the photo, it was a lot! Once the inspiration was in, it was time to start filtering it all against my main concept framework (I\u2019ll explain about this in another post). This was a lengthy process, it took me a couple of days of note taking, reading and re-reading, and letting my subconscious hum in the background. At the end, I had filtered it down to a small list (1 A4 page) of little golden nuggets of input, compiled using a prescribed methodology of the concept development process, and plain old gut-feeling.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m grateful for this list, and the people who helped to inspire me \ud83d\ude42 now, on to the next things: a whole lot of research.<\/p>\n

Until next time!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
