    That is so true! I was working on a project and stuck in solving a problem for days. Suddenly I decided to focus my mind on something completely different, even something in which I'm not interested! So I got out and went to a poet's kind of meeting. During two hours I tried so hard to understand what they were saying or talking about which was a complete failure to me! Then when I came back home and sat in front of my computer to resume my project, guess what? All the answers I needed for solving the problems came up in an instant moment! Magical, right! And this is what I've learned! When you're mind is stuck in something, concentrate on something different, free your mind from it and give it some space. It will work!

      It’s a very privileged place to preach from, eh? The concept of workday downtime is alien to most of us. I often wish that Simon could refocus away from elite business and into worlds such as education and local government.

    first of all, thanks to Simon for the inspirational sharing.
    noticed the comments about the interviewer, personally I actually enjoy interviewing brilliant folks like Simon. To avoid the situation she's facing in this session, there's few ways to prepare for a good interview session. One is to communicate with the interviewee before the event, on the core message that he wants to share over that particular occasion, and we as interviewer can make preparation around that point of focus.
    Another area we can prepare is to communicate with event organizer and get a grasp of what kind of audience would be attending, and what's their expectations, that provides another layer of preparation.
    With someone like Simon, its best not to get in his way while he's doing the talking, but instead, when he's pausing to begin a new sentence, interviewer can take that opportunity to briefly summarise what's just been said, to help audience to refresh their memory 😊

    Finally! Someone saying what I've been trying to tell people in my life for years! Anyone who is creative, who writes, already knew this. Where the phrase, "sleep on it" came from, too. I do my most creative thinking when I'm idle (yeah, sometimes in the shower, sometimes doing dishes). Einstein was a practitioner of just sitting and thinking. The best literature on the planet was not written after work. It was the only thing. Ask Stephen King how many of his novels would exist in their current form if he still had to teach to pay the bills?

      @Jeronimo Tamayo aaaah... this is the result of your personal brainstorming ?. I feel we are brainstorming in a global collective. I agree.... Living own life on the cost of others must be stopped now This is modern slavery. And when I've identified this feeling in me (within job and personal love relationship)... it was in a sudden soooo clear and easy to get my LIFE PURPOSE. Be a rebellion and a loving, caring and serving human.
      And in terms of DP... no... no death... I feel also compassion with his painful narcistic behaviour and childhood traumata... he did not learn how to love.

I have been working for years now to make processes so easy that anyone can do it specifically to stop this from happening but there is a lot more work that needs to be done.

      You misread that.
      It says: "Creativity is NOT ON-DEMAND" which is true. It is very rare to be able to just turn creativity on and is near impossible to do so when someone is demanding it of you in a last minute scenario.
      Such situations actually tend to turn creativity off because of the unwarranted stress the individual is putting on you which is often followed by you getting angry and the idiot.

    Summary:
    1. Schedule your personal Time. Be respectful of things that matter too you. It’s your time! Take control of it. Don’t let anyone else fill it with bullsh*t.
    2. Ideas don’t happen so random that you think.
    3. Subconscious brain- gut decisions.
    4. Ask the question to yourself and let the brain work on it over a longer period of time.
    5. You need to sit down and meet each other. Talk together and find real solutions.
    6. All people you meet are potential friends.
    7. Search for good conversations where ideas happen
