More tips on practising innovation
- Ban Things. Having constraints and parameters actually inspire innovation by forcing you to think dynamically and creatively.
- Get Out of the Office, even if it’s just to walk around the block. Your mind will start connecting dots between what you see and the problems you left back at the office.
- Fuel Up on Creativity. Pick something creative to kick-start the morning. It will inspire your attitude and creativity throughout the day.
- Ask Yourself “What Would My Hero Do?”. When you’re stumped with a problem you can’t make any headway on, ask yourself what they might do to solve it.

Take regular breaks
Not looking away from the computer doesn’t translate into productivity. A good way to boost your motivation throughout the day is to take small exercise breaks.
You can do anything from stretches to treadmill runs, just to get your blood flowing and boost your brain function by moving your body. It also sets the tone for a more energetic afternoon.

Write down your top priorities and designate ways and blocks of time to tackle them. Also minimize distractions (i.e., social media notifications, alarms, news alerts, etc.) to get these things done.
