Now we know (one more) secret to your success Mark! I love the combo of assertiveness and humility: declare a point of view and let the games begin! And thank you for reminding us of the power of an open-ended question: Andy Raskin’s famous “And we got to thinking, what if…” has opened my mind to more new possibilities than any number of ‘solutions’…
Thanks for that! It’s funny, after writing this, and reading your comment, “I got to thinking, what if…” we explored methods to harness feedback — that is, this post was about provoking ideas, not sifting through and picking ones that speak to you. I’m finding myself think about this a lot, especially since AI can generate so many novel ideas….
Thanks, Michael... And really try AI angle for this use -- it's changed my life, as you can get tons more feedback, no hesitation, and ask for different points of views in infinite ways!

Brilliant. This is a tactic I try to do regularly and the powerpoint suggestion is good because people can critique it indirectly. Wonderful reminder.

I love having AI run counter-arguments on my writing. Helps me anticipate and address critique.
