Fresh Out of Ideas

If you are fresh out of ideas,
You may need to freshen up the ones you have,
Throw out the ones past their use by date,
Listen to what comes out of the mouths of babes,
And don't discount all of those that come out of an old hat.

Clever. A little spit and shine polish never hurt ... maybe old ideas just need some re-adjusting to make them shine again? Gotta keep an open mind when going stale...

I often feel that companies that operate on minimum staff or below rob themselves as far as fresh ideas go and end up with people who say yes a lot or that's good idea to one that is not good for the health of the company. I hope you are are doing well in whatever field of endeavor you are involved in as you seem quite clever and your ideas are fresh. REgards David in NZ.
