Problem solving and breaks

Work doesn't just happen when you're trying to. There's a kind of undirected thinking you do when walking or taking a shower or lying in bed that can be very powerful. By letting your mind wander a little, you'll often solve problems you were unable to solve by frontal attack." -- How to do great work?

By the end of the day, I was in the middle of something. I took a break, dinner and some recreation. I thought of an edit that I could do and viola, there's results.


"The daydreaming has to be interleaved with deliberate work that feeds it questions." - Paul Graham.
