In an attempt to ramp up our creativity, we were taught to brainstorm.
I personally hated this activity, because I was already a very tangential thinker.
Looking back, I can see that, although I have always been repulsed by brainstorming, the praxis became the norm for me as an adult.
The consequences have been painful, and mostly unfruitful in a day-to-day sense.
My mind races through all possibilities, then succumbs under the weight of the mental diagram.
So, I am trying to give up something which seems ingrained in my thought processes.
This is not easy.
Please pray.

I think brainstorming does not work well when done solo. Many ideas do not survive being explained to another person. Also, it seems that things I have known for a while don't really click (2+2=4) until I discuss things with someone.
Well said. I don't recall many projects being a collaborative effort. Then again, there's a lot I have forgotten ;)
