Building more ideas, part IV - Second Support

The second support to your idea building is Read and Apply. When you want to have a bunch of great ideas, you're going to have to admit to yourself that the best ideas come from other people. You just have to figure out how to apply them to what you're doing. The easiest and most common form of other people's ideas? Books, blogs, websites, etc - anything written.

Reading can have the same mind clearing effect as Activity. And with the amount of information available, you can become an expert on anything you want to.

One excellent source of ideas I read recently was The Four Hour Workweek by Timothy Ferriss. His blog is fun too.

Other blogs I subscribe to are:
Gaping Void
How to Change the World
Real Dan Lyons
Scobleizer
Seth Godin

I have kind of a reading addiction issue to tell the truth. If you aren't a reader, try starting small. Subscribe to one really entertaining or useful blog and read it every day.

Remember that the more information you put in, the more ideas you'll get out.
