10 Ideas Blog

The 10 Ideas Blog was inspired by the words of James Altucher in his National Best Seller, Choose YourselfEach week, we sit down and challenge our brain to come up with ten ideas for new inventions.  This is a great exercise for anyone to participate in, and sometimes we come up with really great concepts (and sometimes, they’re a little crazy!) Our father, Ben Greenfield wrote an article about why this is such a good idea, and you can read that article here.
In this installment of 10 ideas we were inspired by many different gadgets and fun things! We have some great ideas that allow us to spend less time on our to do list, and more time to do the things we LOVE like eating popcorn and drinking very chocolatey hot cocoa. Check them out! 

Terran on Working Smarter

I had a lot of fun ideas this month! I was trying to think about what would accomplish less work, more play?  A clothes folding machine! Laundry already takes a while to wash and dry…and then you have to fold it all and put it away. Get back at least 30 mins of time each week! Another time saver could be a mug that extended into a water bottle. Less waste, less to carry, a coffee shop approved! Last but not least, we all need a 3D chocolate pen. Turn all your drawing creations into edible chocolate art! Clean any hard surface, get creative, and you have a snack in minutes! 

River on Working Smarter

My ideas were schoolwork related. Math books should come with a built in calculator that can help you with specific math problems. Whatever you are learning that week, it could show you how to to do the problem, a calculator to solve the problem, and a notepad for anything written. What if all science books included a periodic table or general info on the 6 major sections of science astronomy, meteorology, physics/chemistry, earth science, biology, and environmental science? What a time and paper saver to include in our books. And lastly, we go a lot of areas that don’t have wifi or internet. An offline phone would be an awesome way to navigate, get in contact with others if necessary, and do online research anywhere on the go!
