So where do most ideas come from? Well, there probably is no one place as ideas can spring up even in some of the oddest places. Some of the greatest inventions out there have come from other failed ideas, for example. It is said that the person that invented post it notes came up with the idea from trying to invent some sort of industrial strength glue. Apparently some got on some paper, obviously it did not work well, but the rest of the story became history.

So you just never know where you may be or what you may be doing when a great idea for something hits you. What ends up happening in the end could become another part of great inventions history.
