		<description><![CDATA[Become an Explorer. An explorer looks for ideas wherever they can find them. An explorer gathers ideas and puts them together so you can use them at a later date. The idea of the Explorer comes from Roger von Oeach&#8217;s book &#8220;A Whack on the Side of the Head.&#8221; Besides the Explorer, there is the [...]]]></description>

This is gonna be good. But then you get your meal and it&#8217;s not filet mignon but a hamburger from the dollar menu at McDonalds. What&#8217;s happening? [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I took an improv class several years ago and one of the main principles was to take what the other person gave you and work with it. An example: Your partner says, &#8220;You have a duck on your head.&#8221; The wrong answer is, &#8220;No, I don&#8217;t.
