How do you come up with new ideas?

George Bernard Shaw once said, “If you have an apple and I have an apple and we exchange these apples then you and I will still each have one apple. But if you have an idea and I have an idea and we exchange these ideas, then each of us will have two ideas.”

This list is how I generate new ideas, and they are all excellent ways of getting new ideas for your business (or anything, really):

• You can brainstorm (in a structured way) things that people need – for me, that was writing-related things.
• You can ask your friends, your colleagues and your social networks what they need.
• You can read a lot of research.
• You can observe.
• You can ask your clients.
• You can ask your mentors.
• You can look at what other people are offering.
• You can use mind maps.
• You can meditate – with music, before you go to bed, in the shower, on a walk to the beach…
