The Creativity Faucet is a process for generating "gold" ideas by treating your mind like a backed-up pipe. You must intentionally purge the "wastewater" of bad, derivative ideas before the "clear water" of high-quality, novel insights can flow.
Set the Extraction Window Allot a specific, uninterrupted block of time (minimum 60 minutes) to the task. Do not rely on "being struck by inspiration." Accept that the first 15–30 minutes will yield exclusively low-quality output.
Empty the Wastewater Write down every obvious, cliché, or "bad" idea that comes to mind.
