“The opportunity for creativity begins the moment we don’t know what we’re doing.”

Thought: It’s incredibly hard to find a moment to think. I can’t do it at home; too much laundry, too much Netflix, too much *everything*. I can’t really do it at work with the constant string of Teams messages, emails, meetings, and products. I was reminded where my moments happen: cycling. I used to cycle to work everyday and it gave me the time to work shit out. There’s no ability to multitask or get bored. My routes are familiar so my legs move automatically. The routine lets my mind free up to solve something in my life (e.g., relationship, work, idea). It takes awhile to settle in but once there, the solutions flow easily. I’m not the kind of person who can just grind out good stuff; I need space. What’s your thing where you find flow? How much time do you spend there?
