Breathing Creativity

A professor once told his students that no brilliant idea would ever dawn on them, if all they did was lay down and stared at the wall. And I bet he was right. Extraordinary ideas do not come out of the blue. Nor are they dreamed up by some genius relaxing in the sun. No way! The ideas that deserve the attention of others are the result of our time spent thinking. Our courage in handling failures. And of our persistence in finding solutions that no one (we know) has ever thought about.
