So you are looking for that ONE good idea. Be prepared! To find that ONE idea you need to generate 1000 ideas.
So you better get started.
Idea generation is fun! - It's about being creative and innovative and creating flow.
For idea generation to work, you need to be non-judgemental toward yourself and your ideas.
In fact you need to be quite proud of yourself and your fantastic ability to just throw around with ideas.
