Your ideas that others already had

You know what is annoying? On a regular day, a genuine idea strikes you. A product that could break the records on the market. You jump into thinking about how to implement and design it, and how to get a patent, and how people will benefit from it and will be forever grateful to you…

Then you go search for it on the internet just to confirm it does not exist… but tanaaa: it’s already there, wua wua wuaaa.

It happened to me one day in the evening, while I was brushing my teeth when it all of a sudden crossed my mind: what if there was a toothbrush that also worked as toothpaste? 2 in 1. Meaning, this:

a refilling toothbrush. You’d just have to push a button to release the paste. Something that you could easily carry in your bag, in your pocket, anywhere, at work, while travelling. Like the one in the picture above. Apparently it has been on the market for some time now with various functions and names.

There have been various ideas along the way. And already taken. You’ve been there too, right? Yet, there is something incredible about this annoying happening: It is no longer annoying once we understand that we are all capable of amazingness and that there are surprising resources lying within ourselves. They must be hidden under layers and layers in our subconscious. Yet they will reveal themselves at some point….What I’ve learned and noticed is that when we stop overthinking, when we stop worrying, when we leave our mind to breathe, that is when creativity, ideas and truths come to surface, when they simply explode. We should take advantage of those moments: write down all the ideas so that we always remember how genuine we can be when we’re at ease.

I’m really curious to hear your ideas that others already had. 🙂
