Comments on: An endless flow of fantastic ideas: Part 1 http://www.radsmarts.com/2009/12/how-to-generate-fantastic-ideas-2/ Create, persuade & profit from performance-boosting ideas Thu, 09 Sep 2010 06:31:17 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 By: Catherine White http://www.radsmarts.com/2009/12/how-to-generate-fantastic-ideas-2/comment-page-1/#comment-6069 Catherine White Wed, 28 Apr 2010 08:52:36 +0000 http://www.radsmarts.com/?p=2577#comment-6069 Thank you for tweeting this post. I appreciate the prod in terms of reading, one of my passions. You know as a child I was always taught girls are seen and not heard, and as a result married men who required me to keep my intelligence under wraps. To this day, I still observe this internal behavior. The truth is, while my father taught me to dumb down, he instilled in me a love of books. There's no substitute for good reading. Education can't give you that, it can only show you where the library is. Notwithstanding, I take great pleasure knowing all those years of reading, when my children were without TV, also instilled in them a love of reading. A passion now shared by my grand daughter. Wonderful recommendations --- I've read most of the De Bono books, but I will seek out Mozart's Brain Fighter Pilot. Thank you for tweeting this post.

I'm pretty hard to impress sometimes but I found this post to be immensely beneficial. I also like the overall brand and style of your site. The URL is much catchier than the one before. I think you may have yourself a real winner. Congrats. Robin, this post lead to some ideas that are going to change my direction for the next year profoundly.

I seem constantly stuck for ideas for paintings, and an experienced artist told me to read more novels! Not necessarily good novels eithers. Ideas cross-fertilise as you pointed out, nothing is lost to the mind. Thanks again, Jimmy Hi Robin,
