I have come to a realization. I have an area in my mind, a shelf with papers, actually it is more like a box in the corner. I have just appointed it a name, My Stupid Box. This is the place where all the ideas I bring to the table that are called stupid or impossible to achieve get stored. Funny thing though, after these thoughts sit in My Stupid Box for awhile, then suddenly emerge rejuvenated and with a fresh sense of appeal. It seems ideas become great after hanging out in The Stupid Box. My Point, look for your own ideas, they are probably in the corner in a box labeled Stupid.
