Don’t Underestimate “Bouncing Your Idea!”

In the world of innovation and creativity…one of the greatest underestimated and only casually recognized strategies is the act of “Bouncing Your Idea” off others.  Think about it.  Sometimes “Bouncing Your Idea” off someone is conducted so naturally and regularly that no one takes the time to personally and professionally assess the value of this historic process of sharing and discussing an idea…of any size/level!  Therefore, this TRIPLE III TIME message:  Don’t Underestimate “Bouncing Your Idea!” will suggest a strong TOP 10 list of resulting positives that might go unrecognized and appreciated?!

When “Bouncing Your Idea!” off someone you may:

  1. See even more growth areas than you had considered.
  2. Identify weak points in the idea design/implementation that went unnoticed.
  3. Find that you have more individuals/organizations/businesses interested in your idea than you thought.
  4. Have a group of unique “spin-off” ideas come forward.
  5. Realize others have a similar idea that can add value to yours.
  6. Become the “go-to” person regarding new idea discussion and development.
  7. Create an “idea generation” movement/division in your workplace/community.Albert and Henry
  8. Help a friend/colleague better formulate an idea and its presentation to others.
  9. Confirm the notion that new ideas aren’t always about more money…rather about doing things uniquely different.
  10. Build your own self-confidence in your capacity to be innovative and creative.

All ten are common-sense and straight-forward.  So go ahead and begin Bouncing Your Idea (or Ideas) off others every time you get the chance.

It will be fun and progressive!
