How to Clear Your Mind (GWTW767)
Manage episode 405318336 series 1017288
How do you clear your mind? A simple yet challenging question that I found myself pondering while playing guitar. There is so much going on in the world, so many tasks we need to accomplish, problems to solve, goals to crush, and subjects to learn. It seems like the more we fill our days with, the faster our brains fill, and the harder it becomes to focus, be creative, and produce innovative work. In this episode of Getting Work To Work, I’m exploring five ways I use to clear my mind. It’s not an exhaustive list, but it is a start to helping you and me find a way to carve out time and space for our brains to work and find peace of mind.
Five ways to clear your mind:
- Go for a drive in silence.
- Play a musical instrument, pick up a pencil and draw, or get out the silly putty.
- Go for a walk, preferably in nature.
- Stop multitasking.
- Do less, think more.
Show Links:
- Novelist as a Vocation by Haruki Murakami
- The Land of Lost Things by John Connolly
- Archetype: Gojira X
- Midjourney prompt for episode art: clear your mind, send the demons back to the shadows, burst of light, inspiration, cinematic lighting –ar 16:9 –v 6.0
