Norwegian highway- the game.

A trainer gives you words: a departure point

and a destination point. It will be an items, or
concepts, or anything. Nouns.
You should create an association highway
between those 2 points, using as many
additional points as you need.
It should be a clear and present association
between one point to next one. But you dont
need longer associations than between 2 points.
Use minimum amount of points: as few as you
can.

 Practical tips and hints on inspiration and creativity.

If You have a question, problem or situation to be solved

in a creative way:
Meditate.
Ask a dilettante, an amateur, a dabbler (like Wikipedia)
Go outside to the forest, seaside or park. Find a stone
or branch. Look at it and decide how do its shape
answers your question. If no find another
stone/branch.
Use special techniques: the Golden Fish method, the
Brainstorming, the Morphological tables method.
The main tip what to do: go and make the first step.
May be a small one, maybe not important. But just
make that first step. Associations will come remember
the Associations game.
