Spark & Kickstart

Creativity Challenge 1998 #21

To be more creative we need simply to act more creative, think more creative, feel more creative and therefore "be more creative."

Check listing has always been helpful for me when I need to "spark" of "kick start" my creative gray cells.

So this week's challenge is to generate your own "Checklist" of action verbs and share how they help you generate more ideas.

So first pick 12 letters for the basic Roman Alphabet. Then look up one action verb for each. Then apply each to your challenge.

My challenge for myself will be marketing in new ways.

My letters are c, q, l, e, m. t, y, r, o, h, i, w

My action verbs are

c connect
connect all my clients to ideas to help them solve their problems
q quilt
quilt ideas into a pattern and plan
l learning
learning...have every contact piece have a learning element to it e evacuate evacuate all old materials from my marketing materials
m mumble
