🧑🎨 When do you have your most creative ideas? Maybe while folding laundry, washing dishes, or doing nothing at all? It's because when your body goes on autopilot, your brain gets busy forming new neural connections that connect ideas and solve problems. Learn to love being bored 😌
Manoush Zomorodi explains the connection between boredom and creativity in this TED Talk.
Step 1: Take five minutes of reflection to remember times when you had terrific ideas out of the blue while being busy doing "silly stuff."
Step 2: Identify one habit you do frequently that prevents you from disconnecting and giving your brain a break, like checking your phone too frequently, YouTubing, etc.
