What an Idea sir....

What an idea sir.....! Remember the Idea ad with Abhishek Bachhan? I love that ad.

I love ads. I love advertising as field. Its kind my hobby/passion/interest.

I hate CRICKET!
You read it right. I hate CRICKET!!

Its like being a marwari & hating overeating or even eating for that matter! (yup thats me again)
Not liking cricket is almost a crime in India. Not following cricket is almost like not following a religion here. You are considered an outsider or a looser or a retard immediately when you dont show interest in cricket. But heck whatever you rate me as, I hate cricket.

Going to think of it I almost dont like any sport for that matter. I am a complete Sportless person. I play Badminton to keep my self fit, but I dont think it qualifies me to be a sports lover so anyways.

I love advertising. I love concepts. I love ideas.
I am in a constant idea generation mode. I get like a thousand ideas a minute when I am in my conscious senses. Again to clarify"i am in my conscious senses", I mostly live on reflexes only. My brain activates generally after 3pm everyday & has a short thinking time ability. I generally am brain-dead by around 9pm, then I again start up late night after 11pm. I dont know does it happen to everyone or not, but I cant be consciously active for too long. I mean I am doing all the correct & sensible activities almost all day, but other than the mentioned hours I dont know what & why I am doing things. I just work on my reflexes!

So all my ideas, logical thinking, strategic thinking, decision making, plans of action are made in the odd non-office hours! But fortunately for my staff, I share with them & discuss the topics with them in the office hours only.

I dont know does this qualify me for a mentally unstable person, but I get all concepts, ideas, strategies at the weirdest times. Generally after 2am or while I am driving!

Well in connection to my previous post I don't work hard. I only manage hard work. That's probably the only thing I am good at in work related issues.

I love ideas. I have lot of ideas. I get lot of ideas. Most of my ideas are practical & useful (this statement has been made after successful implementation of atleast more than a 100 ideas at various situations, on me & others). I am out n out an idea person. No i unfortunately don't use a Idea phone!

The advantage in being idealistic(pun intended) is that you have a hundred solutions for a problem. The disadvantage is that at times you are considered to be confused or not serious.

Well public perceptions is one thing I seriously dislike & don't approve of, so be it!

I think most of the things work based out of a simple idea. Everything that was invented & is successful today is a result of an idea. Most of the business work only on the basis of an idea. Most of the books written, movies done, products launched, services provided, things invented are result of a simple idea.

The common man (read uncreative people) thinks whats in an idea. But the smart ones know everything is about an idea.

One cant develop things without an idea. one cant work hard or slog to create an idea. Ideas are created by genius or by accident. There is no formula to develop ideas, there is no education to help formation of ideas, there is no medicine to create ideas. Ideas are self conceived.

But how can one work towards getting ideas? Well i think all of us have ideas. the only fact is that in most of the people the idea lies in a distorted format. Its like a jigsaw of thoughts. You just have to put the pieces in the correct fashion & tadann... there comes an idea!

It is also said that it is easy to get ideas! its difficult to implement them!
Anyone can get a million ideas, especially when he is drunk. One cant get seemingly amazing ideas whilst drunk. How to earn money, how to hook up with a gurl, how to do business, how to be famous, how to be successful. But it takes total consciousness to bring these concepts to life! There isn't too much of a difference between drunken thoughts & creative ideas; both are irrational, unheard of & speculative in nature. But the only difference is consciousness & practicality! A person high on spirits & a person spiritually high just have a thin line in between; LOGIC! ( Is it evident of me being spiritual; on spirits?)

Almost all my ideas are appreciated when shared. But only a few of them are implemented when tried on. The reason being the relevance. Some times my ideas make sense but are not relevant to the situations. I then stack 'em up in my idea closet & try to access them in some other situation when required! Well the only technological difficulty is accessing the right idea on the right occasion!! Every time I manage to do get the right idea to work bingo its an instant success!
Well now I have an idea that I should end this post here! The concept is too much of vagues information might lead to dislike or disinterest; both of which i wouldn't appreciate! So chao... Catch you later...!
