Yes, you know how it goes.
You're taking a shower, thinking about nothing at all, just enjoying the water, the refreshing sensation, and... what the heck?
A fantastic idea that'll change your life pops up.
Here, you have different options:
1. Forget about your amazing thought and keep living the present time: a nice shower. Guilt feelings coming!
2. Cancel that pleasant "shower moment", and get out of the shower to write down the thought. Annoying experience!
3. Destroy your phone or notebook by getting it wet under the water. Stupid experience!
Many people invest in devices to be able to write things down while showering.
Some others have suffered a dramatic fall while trying to get out with wet feet.
I prefer to think about a cause-effect relationship.
Why do great ideas appear under the shower?
It's because you're relaxed, calmed, thinking of nothing.
You don't look for ideas. They're the ones that find you. Always.
When does that happen? When you're fully present, thinking about nothing at all.
Try to replicate those fully present moments. Examples:
- Walking your dog.
- Running.
- Sunbathing.
- Meditating.
Whenever an amazing idea pops up, you just need an excellent, natural, and easy-to-implement capture process flow. But that's another story.
