Good little set of links there Merced. By the way, I like your blog. I'm going to be reading through it for when I start up my own blog soon. I don't plan on copying your stuff, but you seem to have an established blog, and I'd like to get an idea of what form the articles usually take.

Thanks!

[AlexMerced]

yeah, I have been writing essays lately for the blog which is why i havn't been making threads for them since it's more focused on the details on the issues instead of Ron Paul. Cause honestly, people need to understand the issue before you ask them to support Ron Paul, then they have to tools to understand the message.

But yeah, definetly leave comments on my blog, I love to read comments, and if you want to contribute to my other blog, PM me.

Well, we'll probably be writing together when Freeople launches anyway! :) I'm going to try to start writing again just to clear some of the rust from the gears in my head. My main problem will probably just stem from actually finding the topic to write about, not actually writing about anything.

[AlexMerced]

I usally just choose an issue, then break it down into different philosophies, moments in history, people, and each of those pieces equals a post

Good ideas I wish others were so well informed about the WHOLE TRUTH. And why WE really need to get behind this thang 100%.

yeah that's my personal goal to educate, I'm focusing more on the foundation of the movement. Division of labor is a good thing.

Even for an out-of-the-box thinker, being creative on demand can be aggravating. In a guest appearance at Drew's Marketing Minute, blogger Katie Konrath offers advice on how not to get tangled up in frustration:

Don't reinvent the wheel. "Look around to see what people in other fields are doing," says Konrath. "Then adapt their solutions to your particular situation. It's not cheating if you expand on a concept that came from somewhere else." Henry Ford took the concept of an assembly line and applied it to cars. Likewise, the technology for roll-on deodorant was inspired by the inner workings of a ballpoint pen.

Actively pursue brilliant ideas. When you have an epiphany at three in the morning, or while waiting in line, don't be fooled into believing it's a random thought that came from nowhere. Writes Konrath, "Serendipitous ideas occur because you've set your mind to looking for a solution, and—even when you're not thinking directly about your problem—your brain is ticking in the background."

Think before throwing out a "bad" idea hastily. A brainstorming session often produces a few real duds, but concepts that seem implausible, impossible or silly may still have potential. "A lot of ideas that sound completely backwards at first are actually gold mines for new and better ideas," Konrath says.

The Po!nt: There are a million tools and strategies for sparking creativity, says Konrath, but none will "help unless you stop ... self-sabotaging behaviors that destroy your best ideas before you have them."
