The best way to get great ideas is to get lots of ideas and throw the bad ones away. 2. Create ideas that are 15 minutes ahead of their time...not light years ahead. 3. Always look for a second right answer. 4. If at first you don't succeed, take a break. 5. Write down your ideas before you forget them. 6. If everyone says you are wrong, you're one step ahead. If everyone laughs at you, you're two steps ahead. 7. The answer to your problem "pre-exists." You need to ask the right question to reveal the answer. 8. When you ask a dumb question, you get a smart answer. 9. Never solve a problem from its original perspective. 10. Visualize your problem as solved before solving it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10566</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Blessed is the leader who seeks the best for those he serves. -Unknown. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24495]]></link><description><![CDATA[Blessed is the leader who seeks the best for those he serves. -Unknown.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24495</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It seems, in fact, as though the second half of a man's life is made up of nothing but the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18568]]></link><description><![CDATA[It seems, in fact, as though the second half of a man's life is made up of nothing but the habits he has accumulated during the first half.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/18568</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wood-pigeons cooed there, stock-doves nestled there; My trees were full on songs and flowers and fruit,  Their branches spread ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46600]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wood-pigeons cooed there, stock-doves nestled there; My trees were full on songs and flowers and fruit,  Their branches spread a city to the air.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46600</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Take a music bath once or twice a week for a few seasons, and you will find that it is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43478]]></link><description><![CDATA[Take a music bath once or twice a week for a few seasons, and you will find that it is to the soul what the water bath is to the body.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/43478</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is curious that physical courage should be so common in the world and moral courage so rare. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10309]]></link><description><![CDATA[It is curious that physical courage should be so common in the world and moral courage so rare.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/10309</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Many pictures turn out to be limp translations of the known world instead of vital objects which create an intrinsic ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46561]]></link><description><![CDATA[Many pictures turn out to be limp translations of the known world instead of vital objects which create an intrinsic world of their own.
