Do you from time to time get ground to a halt when authoring material, analyzing, designing, or engaged in another creative enterprise? Or maybe you simply can't get rolling; you go through writer's block or blank out. The void page or screen may be daunting.
And so, take a break! I've determined that transferring from one sort of activity to a different one arouses creativity. This is especially true when transitioning from work to leisure time, exercise, or a hobby. Perhaps by resting our conscious mind we put into action our subconscious.
Consider a recent illustration. One break of the day, first thing, I began working on a proposal to print a third edition of one of my books. After approximately 2 hours, I had a good start, including an outline and a little bit of text.
Even so, I started to get stuck and as well get hungry. I biked to a nearby restaurant and, while savoring a light breakfast, 3 proposal-related thoughts "bulged" into my head. I wrote of them on the backside of paper placemats.
I then began a ten-mile bicycle ride, during which I stopped 3 times to briefly jot down more thoughts that came along "out of the blue."
More of late, I followed exactly the same formula - breakfast and a 10 mile bicycle ride - and, on the ride and out of nowhere, I determined how to structure a report that was in the really early stages.
These certain situations are typical of many standardized originative experiences I've enjoyed over the years that were aroused by "shifting gears." Taking a break betters personal effectiveness and efficiency.
