Question

Passage:
Rohit is working on designing of a unique face mask which would not only filter the air inhaled but also send alert messages on the registered mobile number if the user is in a zone of high pollution. This idea is germinated because of the interest and curiosity of Rohit as he is always interested in finding out the specific current problems and their solutions. Before launching his idea he also analysed the pros and cons of the product. Now he has to complete two more steps of an important process.

Questions:
Q1: Identify the process. Explain the steps to be completed by Rohit in the process identified.
A: The process is the **Creative Process**, which consists of five steps: idea germination, preparation, incubation, illumination and verification.

Steps already completed by Rohit:
- **Idea germination** — the idea germinated because of his interest and curiosity; he is always interested in finding out specific current problems and their solutions.
- **Preparation** — he analysed the pros and cons of the product before launching it.

Steps still to be completed by Rohit:
- **Incubation** — the subconscious assimilation of information, where the entrepreneur thinks about the idea and its implementation in the subconscious mind.
- **Illumination** — the idea re-surfaces in a realistic way and the entrepreneur comes out with a viable plan to give it practical shape by collecting raw material, arranging funds and policy-making for implementation.
- **Verification** — also called the validation or testing stage, where the idea is verified to prove that it has value; market acceptance of such a product may be a big obstacle.
