Our brains have two ways of operating

  • Focused: when you're very focused on solving the problem in front of you. But this also clamps down on unconventional and creative solutions
  • Distracted: when youā€™re unfocused and your mind wanders, because youā€™re relaxed. This engages the autopilot area of your brain. The rest of your mind is free to wander, making connections and encouraging creative thoughts to form.

  • Find a way to record the ideas that are sure to come.
