Perfectionist Paralysis

The best way to have a good idea is to have lots of ideas.
–Linus Pauling


A helpful quote for when you're stuck on that one great idea, trying to make it just perfect. Put it aside. Take a break.

Then let yourself loose and crank out a bunch of others. Worry about sifting the good from the bad later.

Here's another article about generating ideas.
