Where new idea's come from?

I think that we, people discover new idea's by visual, knowledge and etc. It is very interesting for us to be inspired of something, for example if a scientists found a new species they will get over exasperated and study all night doing so. I believe we us humans are very interesting because we visualize every seconds, even now we are visualizing something that we don't know! For example visualizing what should we write, play (computer games or other games), lastly, homework... If we don't visualize something then we are weird because, we were born this way we got the ability that no other objects, animals and other livings that on Earth don't have this. In the future that we could use this ability to save our environment, make the world a better place and have a better eco-system.
