You're dead on that the idea does potentially take a long time, and it's particularly geared toward group discussions and projects. I HAVE found, though, that doing it is incredibly useful if I'm in desperate need of a good idea. @TheDutchSchoolKid- You've hit on the hardest part of the idea. Coming across an obviously awful idea is a problem, and can definitely sidetrack you- if you let it. Just roll with it, write it down knowing no one else will ever see it, and let the ideas flow. And, for me, some ideas I think are bad end up being the best ones. Thanks! @All-

Without help of my professor it's terribly hard to finish writing. Maybe if I got this little steps plan it would be better. I had lots of troubles completing my thesis.

Making the list would be a large task in itself, and then one would have quite a bit of material to work with. The last 10 or so items in the 100 would probably take the most time.
