Walt Disney Method

Three distinct phases: Dreamer (wild ideas), Realist (practical planning), Critic (find problems). Named after Disney's creative process.

Reverse Brainstorming

Generate ideas by solving the opposite problem. "How do we make this worse?" leads to "How do we make it better."

Read cookbook/reverse-brainstorming.md

Core Principles

  1. •Quantity first - Generate many ideas before judging any
  2. •Wild is welcome - Impractical ideas often spark practical ones
  3. •Build on ideas - "Yes, and..." beats "No, but..."
  4. •Defer judgment - Evaluation kills creativity if done too early
  5. •Capture everything - Write it down, even the "bad" ideas

When Ideation Works Best

  • •Need fresh approaches to stale problems
  • •Current solutions aren't good enough
  • •Brainstorming sessions produce same old ideas
  • •Want to explore possibility space
  • •Team is stuck in conventional thinking

The Ideation Mindset

Treat ideation as exploration, not evaluation. The goal isn't to find THE answer - it's to expand what's possible before narrowing down.

Bad ideas are valuable:

  • •They might spark good ideas
  • •They define the boundary of possibility
  • •They give permission for risk-taking
  • •They're often not as bad as they first seem
