Having a process also allows you to think of ideas that may not be easily apparent. What's one thing you do to help come up with new ideas? How can you incorporate this into a repeatable framework (for yourself as well as those you collaborate with)?
Having a process allows me to think of ideas easily but sometimes I ran out of ideas. In that case, I would love to take a walk, go outside and take a cup of tea and sometimes I ask my friends and colleagues to help me out of this. I always took note when an idea came to mind.
When it first comes to a subject, I take my time to completely comprehend the phrase. When these ideas come to mind, I would then jot down as many as I could. I would adore taking a walk, running, or doing something soothing if I ran out of ideas. I would always carry a notebook while doing this in case something new occurred. I would then return and conduct additional research on my ideas after my walk. Additionally, I would love to speak with my friends or colleagues to get their opinions.
I do my best to learn as much as I can when I can. I will be watching a show and have an idea that is derived from the show that would work for a project I am working on. My brain is malleable by what it takes in and that translates when it comes to crafting new branding and content ideas. By creating a consistent schedule, I could more effectively incorporate this practice.

What's your creative process?
Research and finding inspiration are key. Then, I save all of what I think is useful in a word document and start brainstorming. I think it should definitely be incorporated into a framework since it can take a long time.
If I were to do it alone, the process varies for me. Most of the time, it is spontaneous. So when I sit down to intentionally extract a creative idea, most of the time my head is empty. So my solution is to sit down with somebody to brainstorm with. Reading and researching before doing so also helps a lot.
I follow a decent process for me to discover an idea and to find out any solutions whenever I feel out.
I start with reading and watching video contents and extract the valuable insights, after that I go out to a quiet place or into the haert of nature where ther's no men around, where I can see and feel the nature only. That helps in keeping me mind refreshed and slowly I find my answers there.
It really works for me and I have applied this multiple times.
Read everything, listen to podcasts, go for long runs, intentionally attend to background details in movies and shows, then run and take notes and have deep conversations with diverse thinkers.
This is definitely an area to think about and revisit. I never analise my creative process. Seems like I should.
I guess first I have a will or a desire for something. Then I start my "solution process" which is how to achieve that goal. Then research may follow and then ideas start flowing until one or a few get put into action to deliver the desired goal
I tend to look at similar material to the topic I'm looking at and try to find topics that are less explored. I also tend to read facts in new articles or on social media and research more based on whatever sounds interesting.
It is great to understand about the ideation process and how I can use it to my advantage.
