    @Silvija Krebs When an idea lights up, I must draw it, then follow thru with thumbnails of whatever starts to flood into my mind #ideachat

    @mbhahn yes the habit of writing them or recording them. Is noting down an idea sometimes limiting? #ideachat

    I'll write down my thoughts and ideas in a notebook. I'll give some time 4 reflection & then see if the ideas are practical . #ideachat

  18. Q2. What makes a habit "good" versus "bad"?
  19. nedkumar
    Ned Kumar@nedkumar
    Habits that foster learning are good; on the other hand habits that result in negative behavior pattern are bad 2/2 #ideachat

    Ned Kumar@nedkumar
    Generally good to have a goal when setting habits as that frames how the behavior patterns will be structured and repeated #ideachat

    A2: A good habit is one that brings positive outcome, action. #ideachat

    #ideachat I disagree about outcomes or wasting time. Both perceptions. E.g is taking a walk an outcome? Is being on Twitter wasting time?

    @ThinDifference Not necessarily. Goals just helps you form the space in which you want to exert your creativity #ideachat

    @nedkumar Don't agree. Sometimes failure (a "bad" outcome) leads to my best results. Be a shame to lose the habit that lead to it. #ideachat

    Good vs bad habits? The answers rests in whether or not we achieved our desired outcome. #ideachat
