Where does idea come from?

Of course it's a very good question; where idea comes from.
Idea is something that makes difference between people. There is a big difference between those who have idea and those who don't have it. Of course perhaps it's important to us and not the God.
You know, some time the whole world changes with just a little idea. And in some cases good idea can change you aspect of view, the way you look toward the universe. That's why idea is so much important.
There is a direct link between innovation and giving a good idea. Once I heard: the need is the mother of innovation.
I think when you don't have any idea about something; you can simply go and gather a lot of information about it. So the more you gather information, better ideas comes to your thought. But what to do or what happen when the idea just doesn’t exist? So it's time to innovate an idea…
I really like to be an innovator or to have creative mind.
Let me give you a have. Through out a day we talk to ourselves a lot, Much more than we can imagine. Actually let me say you are always talking to us. And several great ideas come out of these self conversations. But we just ignore them unintentionally. We can save lots of ideas just by keeping note of these self conversations' results, some of them brainstorm.
We can do it just by a little notebook and a pen. Just try to write whatever comes to our mind. It's quite important to write it just then, cause even seconds later we can't remember what we were thinking about.
So idea comes from our mind, and we are all innovative by nature. We just don't appreciate it and don't care about it.
Ok. Just keep your ideas written in a piece of paper and in a while you have great ideas, especially when you need one.

What do you want to be?

It’s a very beginning question asked by others when you are at primary school. And it’s actually a key question. It’s a question which makes a forward link to your future. And its answer changes your whole life, the way of your living and your aspect of view.
Let’s talk about myself: as far as I remember I always wanted to be an engineer, but I didn’t know what engineering course do I like, till one of my relations started a course of Electrical Engineering. And that was time I understood I adore electrical workings. That’s the feeling of electricity magnetic fields sparks and lots of other things each of us knows from the very childhood.
But now I am one. I mean a Power Engineer. And still asking myself what do you want to be?
I think the more your knowledge improves the more you need to organize your future.
There are two kinds of people:
1-those who want to live in peace
2-those who like to challenge with life
The first group, the dominant group of course, is looking for a work with fixed salary and organizes their lives on this salary. The second group, the most risk taking group of course is playing games, dangerous games. This second group of course changes our lives.
I really want to be in the second group, but it needs both idea and courage at the same time. I am sure I have the latter but I’m looking for the first.
Yet I’m looking to find out what I want to be exactly in future.

How It All Began

This is the first time I’m writing a post for a blog. Of course my blog and hope a day yours beloved one. Any way my name is “Hamed”, a 23 years boy, keen on music, singing, writing, volleyball, climbing, pink pong, cycling, computer, electronics, learning language. I’m a bit joking and thought to be younger than my actual age (at least that’s how I feel). I am studying a BS course in power engineering at Azad University. That’s really nice working with networks, electrical machinery and other electrical equipments.
English is not my native language of course as the native ones should have known by now but I’m mad of English. It all started 8 years ago when I was at the third level of high school or probably far from that, when we were just a little children (I mean my brother & I)-we are twins surprisingly, that’s really surprising when you see a person just like you every morning. You know, my father knew English as well at that time and he tried to teach us a little English word like colors, fruits and so on. But it all left for years and started again at the elementary school but it was left again. I started learning it for a couple of times after that -to be exact for times- but every thing changed in the last time. And it all started 8 years ago. After all those unfortunate, disappointing English institutes, a beloved English teacher changed every thing. You certainly know that memorizing vocabulary is very difficult for the beginners but of course grammar is the most difficult (so what left). He tried to teach us vocabulary by synonyms and antonyms which really helped and grammars with the help of signs and hard practice.
So I love English after him.
There is some thing left, that is writing.
I should confess that I really hated writing composition, till another intellectual teacher changed my mind. He left the compositions’ subjects on our own and even suggested to write a copy of interesting materials or papers to whom that can’t write on their own. He just simply persuaded us to write especially on our interest. And I confess that really helped and made me more interesting on reading.
I started writing dairies 9 years ago, just after my last childhood picnic or my first adult picnic. And it’s 9 years I’m writing diaries. So I’m relaxed on expressing myself (especially in my own language).
The last word: I’m just a beginner writer and there are lots of thing I don’t know. Please help me developing my English and I beg you to remind me of my mistakes.

Best wishes
Hamed sarraf
