How Do You Get Great Ideas?

Ideo are a design company that I hold in high regard. If Fabrica would ever reply to me I would be applying for jobs with them... or doing my masters in design writing in New Yoik.

Anyway.

I just downloaded a widget that asks a new question every day.

Today's question is: How do you get great ideas?

The grammar seems a little incorrect, but who am I to judge?

My thoughts are: that great ideas are not gotten. They do not just appear. They are not something that wakes you up in the middle of the night and by morning you are done masterminding your ideas.

A great idea is something that grew from an idea.

I'm going to use a quick and partially appropriate metaphor. It is like (or a simile if you're Ed Byrne) the Great Wall of China. It is great. It started with an idea, it started with a thought, it started with one brick, and one pair of hands, followed by many thousands of others. There was one person though that laid the first stone/brick.

And then as the chinese proverb says 'Many hand make right wolk.'

That's what an idea is. It's not something forced, and more importantly it comes from the want to fulfill and need (rather than the need to fulfill a want).

That is how great ideas come to be. From one thought, that is built on over time, and developed by other people to the point of it becoming great. More than likely your 'Great Idea' will far succeed your own meandering existence.

Boycott Israel, now!

ISLAM MEANS PEACE AS A TERM. ISLAM IS THE ALONE RELIGION WHICH HAS LAW OF WAR. "Peace" is the most common word on a Muslim's tongue. Whenever two people meet, they exchange greetings, wishing each other peace: "Peace be upon you." But peace cannot prevail except through justice. Since the concept of justice may differ from one man to another or from one society to another, Muslims believe that real justice is that which is specified by Allah.
Islam always wants to peace. Islam permits fighting in self-defense, in defense of the religion, or by those who have been expelled forcibly from their homes. At the same time, Islam requires one to treat one's enemy mercifully. It lays down strict rules of combat which include prohibitions against harming civilians and against destroying crops, trees, and livestock. Islam also requires that if an enemy declares his desire to end hostilities and seek peace, the Muslims must do the same. Sudan, Indonesia and Malaysia didn't conquer with sword. Muslim merchants had caused become muslim in these country. Only reason is to live Islam utmost sincerety as Muslims believed strong faith. MECCA IS CONQUERED WITH QUR'AN. Conquest of the heart is the front of the conquest of country. In spite of the fact that pagans, those who defy faith had tortured savagely and harmed him, Hadhrad Muhammad (pbuh) said in conquerring Mecca like Hadhrad Yusuf: "This day let no reproach be (cast) on you: Allah will forgive you, and He is the Most Merciful of those who show mercy!
Islam is not the savageness of religion. Muslims are not savageness and terrorist. Christians made the Inquisitions, the savagenes of The Crusades, Second World War, war of Vietnam.
The concept of Jihad (struggling in the cause of Allah) is stated in the Qur'an. Allah said: "Fight in the cause of Allah those who fight you, but do not transgress limits. Allah does not love transgressors." [2: 190] Jihad is never to be waged to force anybody to choose a particular religion. On the contrary, it is to waged to protect his right to choose freely. Therefore, if there is a force in the world that tries to prevent a person from practicing this right, Jihad may lead to fighting the force that is trying to prevent him from exercising free will.
"Allah does not forbid you to deal justly and kindly with those who fought not against you on account of religion, nor drove you out of your homes. Indeed, Allah loves those who deal with equity" (Surah Al-Mumtahinah 60:8)
Human is either hizb-ul-Allah (the soldier of Allah) or hizbussatan (the soldier of satan). Muslims are the soldiers of Allah. We are not member of terror organization. We are not the member of the organizitation named hizbullah in Lebanon.The goal of Muslims is gaining the Consent of Allah. Come on! Join us.
Strive for peace and justice for all!
"Do not let your hatred of a people incite you to aggression." (5:2).
Allah commands: Nor take life - which Allah has made sacred - except for just cause.
On that account: We ordained for the Children of Israel that if any one slew a person - unless it be for murder or for spreading mischief in the land - it would be as if he slew the whole people: and if any one saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of the whole people. Then although there came to them Our messengers with clear signs, yet, even after that, many of them continued to commit excesses in the land. (5: 32)
For spreading mischief in the land: "Except for those who repent before they fall into your power: in that case, know that Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful." (Al-Maeda, 34)
Mischief-making: Hadrat Hudhayfah reported Allah's Messenger (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) as saying: A mischief-maker will not enter Paradise. (Abu Dawud)
Footnote: Those are who were mischef-maker from Muslims will not enter paradise. Those are who were mischief-maker already will enter the hell!!!
The Unbelievers spend their wealth to hinder (man) from the path of Allah, and so will they continue
to spend; but in the end they will have (only) regrets and sighs; at length they will be overcome: and the Unbelievers will be gathered together to Hell;- (8: 36)
Do not usurp: Hadrat Sa'id bin Zayd (may Allah be pleased with him) reported Allah's Messenger (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) as saying, "If anyone takes a span of land unjustly, its extent taken from seven earths will be tied round his neck on the Day of Resurrection." (Bukhari and Muslim)
Stand up against tyrants: Hadrat Abu Sa'id (may Allah be pleased with him) reported Allah's Messenger (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) as saying, "An excellent jihad is when one speaks a true word in the presence of a tyrannical ruler." (Tirmidhi, Abu Dawud and Ibn Majah)
If Allah were to punish men for their wrong-doing, He would not leave, on the (earth), a single living creature: but He gives them respite for a stated Term: When their Term expires, they would not be able to delay (the punishment) for a single hour, just as they would not be able to anticipate it (for a single hour). (16: 61)
From time to time, some general calamity occurs in the world. It is reason of that A servant has own crimes, own sins.
Whatever misfortune happens to you, is because on the things your hands have wrought, and for many (of them) He grants forgiveness. (42: 30)
ISLAMIC JUCTICE:
Nobody should be above the law: Mother of faithful believers Sayyidatina 'Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said that the (people of the tribe of) Quraysh were anxious about the Makhzumi woman who had committed theft and asked, "Who will speak to Allah's Messenger (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) about her?" Then they said, "Who will be bold enough for it but Usama bin Zayd, the friend of Allah's Messenger?" So Hadrat Usama (may Allah be pleased with him) spoke to him and Allah's messenger said, "Are you interceding regarding one of the punishments prescribed by Allah?" He then got up and gave an address, saying, "What destroyed your predecessors was just that when a person of rank among them committed a theft, they left him alone, but when a weak one of their number committed a theft, they inflicted the prescribed punishment on him. I swear by Allah that if Fatima, daughter of Muhammad, should steal I would have her hand cut off." (Bukhari and Muslim)
Do not suffer injustice: Hadrat Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: Allah's Messenger (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) never went out of my house without raising his eye to the sky and saying: "O Allah! I seek refuge in You lest I stray or be led astray, or slip or made to slip, or cause injustice or suffer injustice, or do wrong or have wrong done to me. (Abu Dawud)
The rewards of establishing justice: Hadrat 'Abdullah ibn 'Amr ibn Al-'Aas (may Allah be pleased with him) relates that the Holy Prophet Muhammad (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) said: The just and fair persons (rulers and judges) will be seated on chairs of light before Allah (The Glorified and The Exalted). Such persons are those who decide justly and deal justly in matters relating to their families and other affairs entrusted to them. (Muslim)
The rewards of a good judge: Hadrat 'Abdullah bin 'Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) and Hadrat Abu Hurayra (may Allah be pleased with him) reported Allah's Messenger (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) as saying, "When a judge gives a decision, having tried his best to decide correctly and is right, he will have a double reward; and when he gives a decision having tried his best to decide correctly and is wrong, he will have a single reward." (Bukhari and Muslim)
Freedom of belief is guaranteed in Islam. But There is no democracy in Islam. It should be very clear that Islam tolerates not only other faiths but even its enemies. This is stated clearly in the Qur'an:
"Allah forbids you not with regard to those who fight you not for (your) faith, nor drive you out of your homes, from dealing kindly and justly with them, for Allah loves those who are just." [60: 8]
It is one function of Islamic law to protect the privileged status of minorities, and this is why non-Muslim places of worship have flourished all over the Islamic world. Islamic law also permits non-Muslim minorities to set up their own courts to implement family laws drawn up by the minorities themselves and to govern their own affairs.
History provides many examples of Muslim endurance towards other faiths. When the great leader and second Caliph, Umar, entered Jerusalem in the year 634, Islam guaranteed freedom of worship to all religious communities in the city. In fact, so careful was Umar in setting an example for his people that he not only went to a church to pray, he prayed outside in the courtyard, lest his followers after his death be tempted to convert the church into a mosque.
Islam teaches that the closest the Consent of Allah and the most beloved of Allah are those who are the best in piety. Thus all people, male and female, and regardless of race, color, nationality or ethnicity, are considered and treated as equal at creation before Allah and before the law. This concept of endurance did not reach the West even in theory until the 18th century and in practice not until the 20th century.
Hidayath (The correct path) is distinct from error. Right Guidance is clear from Error. We only notify to Non-Muslims for living under the roof of Islam. We only warn Non-Muslims. I just want to warn you, at face of a terrible Penalty.
Al-Amr bil Maruf wa Nahi an al-Munkar is the duty of Muslims: The above term literally means commanding what is right and forbidding what is wrong and encompasses a whole gambit of duties and responsibilities. The Qur'an makes it the duty of the believers (Muslims): "You are the best of Peoples evolved for humankind, enjoining what is right and forbidding what is wrong and believing in Allah" (Aal Imran, 3:110). It means that every individual of the society has the right, nay the duty, to tell the truth and stand for it, to further all that is good and virtuous and do his utmost to remove the wrongs and vices wherever he finds them.
THE REASONS OF KNOWING ISLAM WRONGLY: 1- Unfortunately, Most of human exactly does not know Islam according to Islam. Most of mankind has lost its own sense faculties because those people are in comfort, amusement, has the passion of earn much money. Most of human is in being drunk of amusament, football, music, secularism, ideologies. Sustanance and blessings are not favour of Allah. They are all handle of trial. Satan shows evil to Islam to Non-Muslims. By going through the teachings of Islam, it is clear that such a religion has only come to benefit mankind - not to destroy it. So why is there so much hatred for this noble religion in the West? The answer is simple, the media. It is the Jewish influenced media of the West which has portrayed Islam to be something that it is not. Those are who wanted to deceive human beings, always attack Islam. With regret, some people knowingly change translations of Holy Qur'an. This unkind behavior causes that some people can misunderstand Holy Qur'an. Learn Islam from true sources. Islam have illuminated universe. Islam is the soul of universe. Some people can not understand Qur'an and completely can not profit by Qur'an since they have not belief in hereafter. Belive hereafter acoording to Islam.
Your Allah is One Allah, Allah is alone worthy of worship). But for those who believe not in the Hereafter, their hearts deny (the faith in the Oneness of Allah), and they are proud.(16: 22)
Had We sent down this Qur'an on a mountain, verily, thou wouldst have seen it humble itself and cleave asunder for fear of Allah. Such are the similitudes which We propound to men that they may reflect. (59: 21)
2- Most of men approached with prejudices, glasses of horse and in a deviation. However If they had not approached with prejudice, bigotry and idea obsession. they would have understood Islam. Some of men understand completely way of life is a great problem. This idea is not valid for Islam. This idea is a conjecture and fictitious. Islam presents Divine Laws that guide all aspects of life by distinguishing right from wrong."
3- Deeds of hypocrites who are the one of the greatest enemy of Islam.
4- Most of men confuses with Muslim and Islam. Islam is excellent. There is no fault in Islam. Muslim is a Human being. The Human being can mistake. Islam doesn't want to commit a sin, make a mistake. Mistakes, crimes, sins never attribute Islam. There is no a community of representation in Islam. Communities never represent Islam. Muslims only serve Allah with utmost sincerity.
5- Muslims exactly did not submit Islam with a great sincerity. Most of governments usually did not govern according to Islam. Some Non-Muslim president want to control Muslims and make Muslims in slave for destroying Islam with their all powers. Some imperialist president, missionaries and Zionists exploit for own self benefits wealthes of the countries that Muslims especially lived.
6-The effect of Islam had not showed in Europe in spite of tasawwuf (a mystic way) and Its paths. Tasawwuf is a false way (tariq) and exlectic structure. This is Bid'ah (innovation) related to belief. Tasawwuf is not existing in Islam. Islam is not tasawwuf. Islam is never synthesized with any philosophy, any ideology and any opinion.
Verily, this is My way, leading straight: follow it: follow not (other) paths: they will scatter you about from His (great) path: thus doth He command you. that ye may be righteous. (6:153). It is stated that 'the other paths' are ways of bid'ah. Muslim alone belive Islam and not believe Tasawwuf. Muslims alone follow Islam not ways of bid'ah. Muslims rejected all Isms. Musliims submit to Islam not Tasawwuf. Muslims never find a way other than Islam (see Verse 3:85).
some people in the way of Davidian went through with the attack of septemper 11. Thimothy McWegh mentioned that he want to struggle against to The Emperior of Satan and he hanged and the attacks of September existed after 85 days from his death.
there is an interior disability and in USA.
It is not thought that El Qaida fullfilled Semtemper 11. while security forces are taking from Bush to Texas, It is broken the security code of USA and It is written that ''It´s your turn'' . It is possessed such a technic in USA.
