60 Seconds for Wednesdays on Whidbey: Tips for Producing a Good Idea

Hello to you listening in Anacortes, Washington!

Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga.

Perhaps like me you’ve struggled to solve a problem, get to the heart of a message, and so on. When I’m stuck I start with what I know: imagination and experience; plus, a deep awareness of who I am, not just what I offer. The ‘who you are’ shapes what you have to offer. I also rely on this 5-step idea producing technique I borrowed from James Webb Young:

1. Gather all the raw materials for your immediate problem from your storehouse of lived experience

2. Work all the materials over in your mind

3. Invite your imagination, dreams and subconscious mind to begin synthesizing what you gathered and worked over

4. When the *good* idea does appear embrace it with a resounding “Ah Ha! – I’ve got it!”

5. Nurture the good idea toward solving your problem

Question: What unexpectedly *good* idea did you produce? If you’re still struggling to get to the heart of your idea or message, let’s have a Discovery Chat about the benefits of working with a seriously established Story Guide.
