There’s Always A Way Across

Don The Idea Guy

It might not always be obvious, but there is a solution to your problem. Always.

Ever go hiking in the woods and come across a river?

I guarantee you there is a way across — it just might not (probably won’t) look like a traditional bridge.

There might be a fallen log you’ll need to walk across.

You may need to hike parallel to the water’s edge until you find a spot where the stream narrows and you can jump across.

Perhaps there are stepping stones you can use to navigate your way across in short hops.

You may not make it across completely dry.

There’s a chance you’ll get splashed. There’s a chance you will misjudge a stepping stone and plunge your foot into the cold creek water. You may even completely lose your balance and fall from the log and end up sitting in the river.

You may end up a little damp, but you’ll make it across.

Ideas, Insight

Want hot ideas? Let the tap run.

I’ve written in the past about how I come up with some many good ideas (spoiler alert: it’s because I also come up with so many bad ideas). I’ve also shared how important it is to throw away the first dozen or so ideas you come up with because they’re not going to be especially […]
