An idea evolves subconsciously. For this reason, it is important to provide enough room for the idea, so that it can emerge (see also: “I need an idea – now!”. You provided room for your idea, in order to let it grow. The first idea wafts float already through your mind. The one or the other veil evaporates or conjoins with others. You sense the idea.
Over time you notice that you are interested in something. In this bundle of clouds you find the idea that you should look at a little bit closer. Words are still missing and the idea is not yet tangible. Trust in your fantasy that brought you that far. Do not compel. Give yourself some more time, in order to be able to consolidate the idea. With simple questions, you can observe the idea in relaxed way. Note them on a small paper and keep it with you all the times.
- Do you recognize the idea?
- Which sensuous qualities come to your mind?
- What do you recognize around the idea?
- How does the idea look from different perspectives?
- How does the idea feel?
- How do you call the idea?
Your mental picture is more and more taking shape. Still the description is missing, in order to communicate it to others.
