triggered maybe nowadays with technology available you can just record it, write it down or record it and at least get it expressed now at the time the creative juices are flowing, the inspiration is coming, at that time we ourselves are too excited to evaluate it now if it’s something which is easy to implement then we can do it, but something is going to require a significant amount of time and energy to implement then at that time it’s good to just record it and then after some time when we have calmed down then we evaluate it so this will require a substantial amount of work but it’s something which I can do maybe I need to check it out with some other people so when the creative flow comes, just let it come but that doesn’t mean you have to act and do it immediately but after some time the second step is evaluate it ourselves and we can’t implement all the ideas that we get but at the stage of evaluation say if I got 10 ideas I may shortlist 2 or 3 it’s something which I can work on and then we need some friends maybe our relatives, friends, colleagues to whom we can toss the ideas and they need to not be super critical neither super critical nor utopian if they say oh just do it they have to be realistic without being critical so even if you have one friend like that it becomes a big headache so they can actually give us an objective perspective and even if we don’t get it even if we don’t get the objective perspective if we feel inspired initially any idea that comes we just feel I want to do it but say after 2-3 days, after a week still that inspiration will remain that means it’s not just a passing infatuation, it’s like a strong inspiration that we have then we can start implementing it and it’s not necessary that every single idea that we implement it has to lead to success it’s the process of receiving ideas and trying to implement them that develops our creativity that develops our skills Edison he said that he tried to make a bulk thousands of times, he didn’t get it he didn’t consider that as a failure I came to a thousand ways in which I did not bulk cannot be made so of course we don’t have unlimited energy to waste in experimenting but experimenting is itself not a waste so within our schedule whatever we have this is what I want to focus on we can try to focus and over a period of time as we start doing it, both our creative faculty will be developed and our critical faculty will also be developed so then we will be able to evaluate, we will receive more and more ideas and we will also be able to evaluate which really works and then we can work on it all the best that’s it thank you sure
