2. "You will never find time
for anything. If you want
time, you must make it."
- Charles Bruxton

3. Everybody and their
mother is asking you
to innovate these
days. Everybody is
asking you to “think
outside the box.”
It makes a lot of sense.
But when will you find the time?

4. Everywhere we go these
days – no matter what
industry – we hear the
same complaints: “Who
has the time to innovate?”
“We’re running just to stay
in place!” Sure, it’s a good
idea, but when? I’m
already overcommitted.”

5. Clearly, everyone needs
to find more time to
innovate. Everyone
needs to simplify their
work life, so there are
more opportunities to
create, collaborate, and
turn top of the line ideas
into bottom line results.

6. Time
Do you have it? Or does it have you?

7. YES, the act of finding
some time to make some
time will take some time
(ah, the paradox), but it’s
time well spent. A few
minutes now will save you
weeks of frustration down
the road.

8. THE ALTERNATIVE?
“If you always do
what you’ve always done,
you’ll always get
what you’ve always got.”

9. And so, in the spirit of helping you
find the time to innovate, IDEA
CHAMPIONS offers you a way to
simplify your work life.
We call it “I-Squared.”
