Remember that wild thought you had last month?
The one that sparked a moment of maybe I could.
What made it feel so impossible? Was it the complexity? The fear of it might not work? Or something else entirely?
We often dismiss these flashes of brilliance with the chorus of too:
too hard,
too risky,
too strange,
too much.
But what if we didn’t?
What if, instead of immediate rejection, we let those ideas breathe?
Think of our students at play. They don’t censor their imaginations. They don’t edit themselves.
They use their imagination to embrace those outlandish ideas. They embrace the absurd.
So, I ask you, what if you reclaimed that unfiltered creativity?
Stop editing your thoughts.
Let that outlandish idea simmer.
Explore it.
See where it leads you.
