Speaking of a daily ideas practice, why not come up with a list of ideas that might help someone else.
For example, one of my favorite exercises in our Vs. Studio Producing Workshop is to have each participant come up with a list of 5-10 plays for another participant in the class. Roles that they think the other person would be great in. It’s a really fun exercise and people are always surprised and flattered by how others see and think of them. Why not do this for your favorite actor friend today?
You could also gift your ideas for an organization or cause that you admire. Write to them and tell them how much you love and why you love what they do. And while you’re at it, give them a list of 10 ideas or suggestions for new initiatives they could undertake.
Not that you’re doing it for this reason…but you never know…they might just write you back and ask you to come aboard and carry out said initiative(s). That’d be fun, right?
