Great ideas can fall out of the sky and into your lap.

There could be a bunch of people in a boardroom, scrambling to come up with something. Perhaps 1000 bad ideas had already been scrapped.

Everyone sits around the table in silence, stumped on what to do. Then, eventually, someone says, “Well, what if we…?”

Smiles of recognition creep across each person’s face, as they think, “That — right there — is a good idea.” From there, the idea of snowballs and a war plan is put together. They convince a risk-averse manager to sign off.
