Just got finished reading this great book called "Making Ideas Happen". Scott Belsky does a great job of taking techniques used by other people/companies, summarizing them into a good set of everyday practicies that can lead you to making your own great ideas come to life.
I've already noticed a boost in productivity, just by simply wording the tasks in my daily To Do list with action verbs, and simply thinking of them as "actions" instead of tasks. I wouldn't be writing in my blog right now if it wasn't for my bi-weekly "Write a blog" task I just started.
Definitely a great read for anyone that has a mind numbing amount of ideas floating around in their head, or even if you have one idea that you've been sitting on for a while and are stuck on where to begin. Check it out.
Next on my list, "The Genius Machine".
