    If new ideas arise like doodles, this would explain why you have to work at something for a while before you have any. It&#8217;s not just that you can&#8217;t judge ideas till you&#8217;re an expert in a field. You won&#8217;t even generate ideas, because you won&#8217;t have any habits of mind to invoke.

    Of course the habits of mind you invoke on some field don&#8217;t have to be derived from working in that field. In fact, it&#8217;s often better if they&#8217;re not. You&#8217;re not just looking for good ideas, but for good new ideas, and you have a better chance of generating those if you combine stuff from distant fields.
