Reflect on what you consume to increase your creativity

Creativity can be broken down into a process:

1. Consume lots of sources
2. But no faster than you can reflect on them and take notes. It's pointless to consume a lot without reflecting because you don't learn anything.
3. Collect your notes in one place and organize them in collections around topics/questions/etc.
4. As your collections grow larger you'll see patterns in them and notice missing pieces. Identify a theme in one of your collections and write about it in an essay, blog post, note for yourself, or another creative output.
