I know I do.<\/p>\n<p>I shrug and say, &#8220;Everywhere.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>For creative people I&#8217;d say the important thing is really what do you do with your ideas once you get them.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know about you, but I feel that I&#8217;m getting at least 2-3 good ideas idea. Easy. And frankly, I&#8217;m a little overwhelmed by them. I feel a little like I&#8217;m being handed a gift, then another, then another, until I&#8217;m staggering a little under this wonderful stacks of presents.<\/p>\n<p>So I&#8217;ve been devising some tools to handle this wonderful cornicopia of what is basically the bread and butter of my life &#8212; good ideas &#8212; and then implementing them.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s what I do&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>First off, I figure out what domain this idea lives in. I do that by asking: &#8220;Who is this idea for? Who is its audience?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Often it&#8217;s the people I&#8217;m currently helping: Other writers. Thanks goodness! If its for one of my clients, all the better. If it&#8217;s for a friend, sweet! And sometimes, it&#8217;s for me. A story problem for my novel pops and I get a little AHA.<\/p>\n<p>Then I evaluate if I can do anything with this idea in 1 minute. And I usually can. I can write it down and send it to the intended person, or share it on the social networks, or prep a blog post.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes I know right off the bat that this idea isn&#8217;t for my clients my friends or me. But it&#8217;s a really good idea! Then what? This is usually where I get stymied.<\/p>\n<p>A friend of mine, <a title=\"Julien Adler\" href=\"http:\/\/julienadler.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Julien Adler<\/a>, helped me see that not every idea I receive is even for me to do anything with. What I great releif!<\/p>\n<p>And with those ideas it is my mission and my passion to give them away as fast as I can. Thank god for social media! I post them on Facebook and Twitter and give them out into the world for any and all to use.<\/p>\n<p>So right now, what is one idea you&#8217;ve been holding on to, that is perhaps crowding your mental space, or not, and you could just let it go, so others can manifest it?<\/p>\n<p>Then you can have more space to focus on taking action on the ideas that really matter to you.<\/p>\n<p>Tips like this and more can also be found in my bestselling book,\u00a0<em><a title=\"Overcome Writer's Block: 10 Writing Sparks to Ignite Your Creativity by Beth Barany, a bestseller\" href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Overcome-Writers-Block-ebook\/dp\/B004LGTJMY\" target=\"_blank\">Overcome Writer&#8217;s Block: 10 Sparks to Ignite Your Creativity<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome to Creativity Saturdays, where it&#8217;s my mission to spark your creativity\u00a0into manifestation.
