Fishing Line Technique In Practice

Whenever you’re trying to come up with a new idea, trying to work out a solution to something or doing any creative work in general, make sure beforehand that nothing will disturb you.

This means basically doing three main things:

  • Retreat to a space where you can be undisturbed for as long as needed and tune out any potential distraction with background sounds.
  • Make sure every possible notification is turned off.
