It's awesome to be inspired by what's happening in our world today but in order to really capture an idea we have to dig a little deeper. And sometimes digging deeper means looking back at the questions and answers from the past. Here's an example, if you're working on a logo or a designing a pair of shoes and searching on Pinterest for inspiration try finding the historical references of the inspiration and start from there. Appropriating the appropriation leaves an idea disconnected. Go deeper. Get off the computer and visit a library or museum and be inspired by the innovations of early makers.
