CREATIVITY

Start of transcript.

Welcome.

In a previous video, we looked at curiosity and it's role in feeding creativity.

Today, we'll examine creativity and it's importance if your ultimate goal is innovative critical thinking and problem solving.

So, what is so magical about creativity?

Well, honestly, nothing.

Oh, I know it can seem magical.

But really it isn't, and here's why:

Creativity is in all of us, although it may be hidden away in some dark corner some of us have not visited in a very long time.

But before we explore ways to get our creative mojo back, let's consider creativity itself.

What is it?

There are a myriad of definitions out there.

But one I particularly like is this:

CREATIVITY: "Is the ability to transcend traditional ideas, rules, and patterns, and to create meaningful new ideas."

Because when it comes down to it, creating something new is the goal, right?

And not just something new but something of value to you or your organization.

WHAT IS CREATIVE THINKING?

The great thinker on the subject, Edward de Bono, says it best:

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

“Creative thinking is a skill.

It's not just a matter of individual talent.

It's not just a matter of sitting by the river and playing Baroque music and hoping you get inspired.

That's very weak stuff.”

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

So what is not the weak stuff that de Bono speaks of?


Where do the good or even great creative ideas come from?

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

For a thought or two on that, let's listen to one of the world's highly creative people, John Cleese

of Monty Python fame:

“Now, people often say to me, where do you get your ideas from?

We don't know where we get our ideas from.

What we do know is we do not get them from our laptops.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

But don't despair.

There are a lot of ways we humans can encourage creative thinking.

For example, de Bono famously said, a simple way to get motivated and spark creativity is just to stop and look.

Because creative thinking is something we are all quite capable of.

We just need to understand what particular approaches work for us.

I will be sharing several ways to spark creativity.

And I can only encourage you to try all or most of them because not all will work for everyone.

That's because the act of creative thinking is a divergent type of thinking.

It's our brains going off in different directions.

It would do us no good as a species if we all thought alike.

It's the same divergent thinking that ultimately improves our critical thinking.

I'm hoping you're starting to see how curiosity, creative thinking, and critical thinking are like the spokes on a wheel that lead
us to the best practices in problem solving.

But there I go again, getting way ahead of myself.

Let's start with why creative thinking is important to us all, whether in our work lives or even our personal lives.

A recent 2014 study by Adobe and Forrester Consulting found that 82% of companies believe there is a strong connection
between creativity and business results.

It found that companies that actively foster creative thinking outperform their rivals in revenue growth, market share, and
competitive leadership, according to that report.

Perhaps the most surprising finding was this.

Despite the perceived benefits of creativity, 61% of companies do not see their companies as creative.

So how do you change this in your organization or for that matter in your own life?

And the next video will offer some ideas on how to get your creative thinking mojo back.
BUT FIRST, A QUICK KEY-POINTS RECAP:

Creativity is in all of us.

It just needs encouraging.

Creative thinking is a divergent type of thinking.

And almost all companies believe there's a strong connection between creativity and business success.

ON THE HUMAN BRAIN:

If we look at the human brain as a computer, we then have to ask, what is the software we use with that computer?
Well, in general the software, at least of Western civilization, was originally designed 2,400 years ago by the Greek gang of
three, the GG3, who were, of course, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, we've done virtually nothing about thinking since then.

ON CREATIVE THINKING:

Creative thinking is a skill.

It's not just a matter of individual talent.

It's not just a matter of sitting by the river and playing Baroque music and hoping you get inspired.

That's very weak stuff.

ON PROGRESS:

2,000 years ago, China was way ahead of the Western science and technology.

They had rockets and gunpowder and such things.

What happened?

What happened was scholars in China started to believe that you can move from certainty to certainty, and as a result, they
never developed the possibility system, never developed hypothesis, speculation, imagination,progress came to a dead end.

ON BEING DIFFERENT.

One of the very important things about creativity is that the new idea, the creative idea must have value, far too many people
who believe they are creative think that just being different for the sake of being different is creative. It is not, and that is what
gets creativity a bad name, so if you look at a door and you say, doors are normally rectangular let's make a triangle a door.

Now unless you can show value for that, that is not creativity.

That is just being different for the sake of being different.

ON MAKING MISTAKES

Now, one of the reasons people are reluctant to be creative in general is that if you try out an idea and it doesn't work, that is
regarded as a mistake.
Now a big deficiency in language, certainly in the English language, is we don't have a word which says, fully justified venture,
which for reasons beyond your control did not succeed.

So anything which did not succeed is called a mistake, and people don't like mistakes because that stands in the way of their
promotion in their career.

ON LOGICAL THINKING.

Provocation is one of the methods of lateral thinking, one of the tools of lateral thinking.

It is completely contrary to the opposite of our nomological thinking.

In our nomological thinking, you can only say things which make sense, which fit our experience and fit in with what we've said
before.

With a provocation, there may not be a reason for saying something until after you have said it, but because it puts us down
on a different position in the patterning system, which allows us to open up new ideas.

ON THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX

Thinking outside the box means thinking for unusual ideas, being creative.

The notion is that we all are within a certain box, which is formed by the constraints, by our expectations, by the concepts we
use, by the perceptions we use, and we play around in that box.

So thinking outside the box means escaping from breaking out of the box to change concepts, change perceptions, change
constraints, change rules, and develop new ideas.

It really means developing an idea which would not have been expected in our usual behavior, in our usual thinking.

So it's just another term for creative thinking, unusual thinking, or lateral thinking.

I prefer the term lateral thinking because that is very specifically defined in system terms, which means moving across from
the main pattern to a side pattern, which, once you're there in hindsight, you can link up with your starting point.

But thinking outside the box is a general term meaning unusual ideas, ideas which would not have arisen within the box of
your usual thinking.

DISCUSSION PROMPT

In the reading "6 Ways To Boost Your Creative Thinking", the first way is to consume content that’s way outside your comfort
zone.
6 Ways to Boost Your Creative Thinking

Being able to think outside the box is a learnable skill. You just have to be willing to try new things.

Many people think you're either a creative person or you're not, while I agree that some people may be slightly more
predisposed to thinking creatively than others, I think creativity is a muscle that can be exercised and improved upon.

Here are six ways to stimulate creative thinking.

1. CONSUME CONTENT THAT'S WAY OUTSIDE YOUR COMFORT ZONE.

We all love reading about stuff in our industry, but typically this doesn't boost creativity. If you're lucky, it might help with
motivation or inspiration. If you want to get your creative juices flowing, start consuming content you wouldn't normally
consume. Read blogs outside of your industry. Read books outside of your normal genre of choice. Heck, grab lunch with a
complete stranger (just make sure they're not a bad stranger).

2. WRITE A 500 WORD ARTICLE WITH NO TOPIC WHATSOEVER.

This is a fun exercise I use when I can't seem to get my thoughts focused or come up with interesting ideas. I'll open a blank
document and just start typing. No headline, no topic, no editing, and most importantly no self-critiquing. I just let my fingers
start typing and let my brain decide what words get written next. Usually I end up with some pretty weird and crazy stuff I'd
never share, but I always feel a boost of creative energy afterwards.

3. GO SEE A MOVIE IN A MOVIE THEATER.

Movies on the big scene are one of the last few places you can enjoy a complete sensory-captive experience.
The giant bright screen. The sound-rumbling surround sound. The smell and taste of freshly popped popcorn. The somewhat
uncomfortable seat with plastic armrests that don't move. Whenever I leave a movie theater, my mind is always spinning with
thoughts and ideas.

4. TAKE A PHONE CALL WITH SOMEONE YOU DON'T KNOW.

Hearing someone's story that's completely new to you can be an eye-opening and mind-expanding experience. Maybe you'll
learn something from them? Maybe they'll give you a new perspective you've never heard about your stuff? Maybe they'll
drop knowledge bombs on you?
5. EAT DIFFERENTLY.

There are studies upon studies that discuss how our diet affects the way we think. Want to start thinking differently? Start
giving your body different (and healthier) fuel. You'd be shocked how much more creatively you can think and act when you
eat a healthier diet.

6. DO THE "NO BAD IDEAS BRAINSTORMING" EXERCISE.

Get at least one other person to join you for a 45-60 minute brainstorming session. No technology and no criticism
whatsoever. Bring a topic or idea you want to brainstorm to the table, and just start riffing on it back and forth. Write down all
your ideas (on actual paper) and don't critique a single idea. It's important to do this in person and to make absolutely sure
you don't have any negative energy or feedback throughout the process. You may end up with 100 horrible ideas, but I bet
you'll have one or two good ones. Plus, you'll get better at this the more you do it.

You don't have to be a creative thinker to be able to think outside the box, you just need to do more stuff that stimulates
creative thinking, even the most creative people need help getting inspired.

CREATIVITY IN PRACTICE

Start of transcript.
Welcome.

In previous videos, we've looked at curiosity and creativity and their importance.

In this video, we'll look at ways to get creative thinking back into your arsenal of tools for solving problems.

First, let's consider this.

We all come into this world as creative little beings.

Give any small child some wooden blocks, for example: And before you know it, they've created a ship or built a house.

SO WHAT HAPPENED?

Well, our education and the need to feel like we are, quote-unquote, "getting things right" means we've slowly been
sucked into the world of convergent thinking we want to be right.

We want to fit in.

So we focus on the known, the understood, the right.

These are the very antithesis of creative thinking, the opposites of the unruly world of divergent thinking.

So how do you get your creative mojo back, and perhaps more importantly, how can you be creative when you need to be?

Let's look at some creativity exercises you can practice in the moment, things to do when you need a shot of creativity right
now, not later.

CHECK OUT THE 10 IN-THE-MOMENT CREATIVITY EXERCISES LIST.

None of these require as much time or special equipment.

For example, you could try doodling with purpose, listening to music you don't love, to literally playing with building blocks or
Legos.

These are all things you can do at a desk, in a break room, or even on a short walk around your building.

What is important is that you make time to do one of these things.

Simply banging your head against the figurative or literal wall is no way to get toward a creative solution.

You might even consider engaging your boss on this, because nothing will ruin your creativity exercise more quickly than being
interrupted by a boss who wants to know what you're doing.

Presuming you find some value in the more quick and dirty approaches, you might be interested in trying a few exercises that
take more time but have a potential for greater payoffs over time.

WHEN YOU'RE READY, THERE'S ANOTHER LIST CALLED 15 CREATIVITY EXERCISES FOR WHEN YOU HAVE MORE TIME.

This list offers a wide variety of exercises that range from finding more reasons to laugh to reading a random magazine to
getting lost on purpose to simply sleeping on an idea.

Monty Python's John Cleese has described how this sleeping on an idea works for him.

FOR EXAMPLE: “ The first thing that I noticed is that if I was trying to write a sketch at night and I got stuck or I couldn't think
of an ending, I couldn't see how to continue the sketch, I would go to bed.

And when I woke up in the morning and made myself a cup of coffee and went back to my desk and looked at the problem, not
only was the solution to this problem immediately apparent to me,but I couldn't even remember what a problem had been the
previous night, I couldn't understand why I did not see what the solution was.
So I began to realize that this business of sleeping on a problem as we say in the English language I think you have a very
similar phrase the idea of working at something, thinking about something, going to bed, and then waking up with a solution
was absolutely extraordinary.”

With all these creativity exercises, it's very important that you try them on for size, and when you find a few that work, that
you practice them.

None will prove useful over time unless you practice them regularly.

And remember, when you are being creative, failing is part of the process.

As John Cleese says, while you're being creative, nothing is wrong.

We'll get back to the value of failure later in the course, but for now, a

QUICK KEY POINTS RECAP.

We all come into this world as creative little beings.

Creative thinking can be encouraged even in small blocks of time at your desk.

Creativity exercises work best when you try a lot of them and then practice the ones that work for you.
MIKE’S WAYS TO DEPLOY CREATIVE THINKING IN THE MOMENT

1. TACTILE ACTIVITY

Legos or K’nex or building blocks – keep some at your desk. The act of making something with your hands can spark creative
thoughts using your 'other' hand benefits your brain.

Here are the best reasons to make friends with your other hand:

a. INCREASE YOUR CREATIVITY

Because brain mapping shows that creativity is housed in the right hemisphere of our brains, experts say we can stimulate this
right brain through working with our "wrong" hand. This also works for lefties, as studies indicate that one hemisphere is
active when we use our dominant hand, but both hemispheres are activated when we use our non-dominant hand.

In this way, we can use the combination of our two hands to create new connections between our ears. "By its design, our
right mind is spontaneous, carefree and imaginative. It allows our creative juices to flow free without inhibition," according to
Jill Bolte Taylor, Ph.D., a neuroanatomist with the Indiana University School of Medicine. "If creativity is located in your non-
dominant hemisphere, then using your non-dominant hand may stimulate those cells," she says.

Another national expert, Lucia Capacchione, has done research which shows that, regardless of which hand we favor, writing
and drawing with the non-dominant hand gives greater access to the right hemispheric functions like feeling, intuition,
creativity, and inner wisdom and spirituality. "When a dialog occurs between the left and right hemispheres of the brain, both
emotions and thoughts are more fully expressed and understood," according to her website. Her book The Power of Your
Other Hand gives a nine-step process for accessing our creative centers by using our other hand.

b. THE BRAIN BENEFITS

Beyond the jumpstart in creativity, using the other hand helps your brain to better integrate its two hemispheres, experts say.
"There is research that musicians who use both hands have about a 9 percent increase in the size of their corpus callosum [the
part of the brain that connects the two hemispheres], so certainly using both hands creates more transfer," says Hale, who
works primarily with children with cognitive challenges, such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) or dyslexia.
"One could argue that this increase in exchange between the hemispheres could benefit intelligence or processing," he says.

Hale also sees benefits in using both hands in learning and sees a connection between being "handy" and learning ability. For
instance, "Girls are stronger in math until about age 11. Then boys become stronger," he says. Why? "I believe it's because
boys continue to say yes to complex kinds of movement such as building and construction that utilize both hands and develop
that coordination, where girls shy from this as they get older," he says.
c. BE MORE OPEN MINDED

It seems that our dominant hand may have a hand in our life choices, too. Studies show that we often favor things that fall on
our preferred side and discard those on our clumsy side. A recent Stanford University study by David Casasanto backs up this
handy theory. Participants were asked to imagine they were hiring personnel for a new company and purchasing new items.
They were asked to make hiring and purchasing decisions based on brief descriptions of candidates and items arranged in
columns on the right and left side of a page. Results showed that right-handers were more than twice as likely as left-handers
to choose candidates and items described on the right side of the page. Left-handers preferred candidates on the left.

Casasanto also found evidence of this right/left prejudice in politics. He found that right-handed candidates made a greater
proportion of right-handed gestures when expressing positive ideas and left-hand gestures when expressing negative
thoughts—with the opposite to be true for left-handed candidates. Interestingly, three of the last four presidents have been
left-handed, including President Barack Obama.

Casasanto's experiments suggest that the hand we favor may direct our thinking in many ways. Do we favor the pasta with
cream sauce on the right side of the menu over the low-calorie salad because it's on the left? Would we choose more
candidates on the right side of a ballot (even if we're not right-wing conservatives)?

HOW TO REACH YOUR OTHER HEMISPHERE?

So with all the benefits of accessing the brain's less traveled path, why not try? "Try to engage in some kind of activity that
uses the other hand," Hale advises. Try brushing your teeth, opening doors, eating (chopsticks are extra credit). I even moved
my computer mouse pad to the left for a totally new experience.

I'm not sure that opening doorknobs with my clumsy side has opened doors to newfound creativity objectivity. I still prefer my
right hand and celebrated the loss of my confining cast. But I do enjoy knowing that I can function without my better half.
Intentionally using my left hand may even have opened my eyes to new experiences such as hay baling, swimming with sharks
or even lion taming!
2. DOODLING WITH PURPOSE ( GARABATEAR CON PROPOSITO )

Exercise: On a sheet of paper draw a random shape, keep adding to it, give the thing a name, rotate the doodle 180 degrees
and give it another name, repeat, In this way you are forcing your brain to see things differently:

3 Ways Doodling Will Help Your Focus and Creativity:

Entrepreneurs are often the most creative people we know.

They are great thinkers, idea generators and visionaries.

They give birth to the ideas that have spawned the greatest innovations of our time, from the personal computer to driverless
cars to personal space travel.

We all have the capability to be this creative, but often our creativity is hindered or even stopped cold by the mundane daily
routines and responsibilities required of us at work and at home.

Recent studies have shown, however, that doing one simple and easy thing may help our focus and spark our creativity.

Doodling. ( Garabatear )

Research in neuroscience, psychology and design has recently demonstrated that people who doodle are often better at
grasping new concepts and staying focused, using the page and the pen as a means of refining creative ideas.

The brain that would ordinarily go dormant without external stimuli to keep it active those who kept their brain active through
doodling while listening to lists were able to recall the lists 29% better than participants who did not.

reasons you should consider Doodling on everything: Notebooks, journals and invoices with a few extra artistic scribbles.

a) DOODLING HELPS YOU FOCUS:


Doodling can help you "anchor a task", keeping you focused during a long meeting or call. Focus on scribbling pictures or
designs that reflect what you are hearing or thinking, even if they are funny or have nothing to do with what you are
discussing. The task will help keep you from losing your focus and recall the conversations later.

b) DOODLING HELPS FIND SOLUTIONS TO PROBLEMS:


The act of doodling is thought to stimulate areas of the brain that may help you analyze information differently. According to
Brown, even if you are drawing on the side of a paper, "you are lighting up different networks in the brain" and "engaging
different information." Doing so could spur that "ah-ha" moment when a solution to a problem seems to have slipped away.

c) DOODLING CAN HELP YOU BETTER DEAL WITH CHALLENGES:


Sometimes, big business challenges can spur significant emotional responses, which can sometimes clutter your thinking and
distract you from focusing on the immediate issue at hand. Taking time to sketch and scribble your thoughts and emotions,
either in words, pictures or designs, will help you better define the problem and get a handle on how to control it.

When I was a youth in school, I often filled my class notes and homemade, brown-paper-bag book covers with everything from
ornate graphic designs to stick figures. I defaced more than my share of voluminous textbooks with pictures in the bottom
corner that, when flipped quickly, would make a moving picture.
3.WORD PLAY

By making portmanteau words or scrambling words.

You can either use Scrabble letter tiles if you have some or simply take any two words that come to mind and find ways of
combining them directly a portmanteau word (such as Motor and Hotel becoming Motel) or scrambling the parts completely
to come up with either a real or a ridiculous word.

WORD PLAY ARTICLE:

Random word stimulation is a powerful technique that provides a practical method of accessing your subconscious mind and
utilize the wealth of information it contains to generate fresh new original ideas.

Regular practice causes the brain to expand its neural network to accommodate this free-form style of thinking, which
strengthens connection to the subconscious mind and endows the practitioner with greatly enhanced creativity and critical
thinking skills.

The best part? The benefits of improving your thinking skills come from the practice of generating new ideas about things that
matter to you.

Using this simple technique, you can find new ways to solve personal or business problems, create new inventions, improve
existing products and services, explore your own feelings and your relationships with others, and in the larger sense to
discover new ways of thinking about absolutely anything that interests you.

Before you begin, you will need a printed dictionary.


Not a dictionary on your computer an actual old-fashioned “analog” book. You will also need a way to take notes a pen and
paper or computer are fine.

STEP 1: FORMULATE A SPECIFIC PROBLEM STATEMENT

Write down exactly what it is you want to generate new ideas about. You can work with any type of subject, there are no
limitations. Try to capture the true essence of what you’re looking for in as few words as possible. Be specific in your
description, a vague description will usually yield equally vague results.

The subject can be stated in the following forms:

1. Solve a Problem State the problem to solve.


Defining a problem is an art in itself.
A clear perception of the problem is the first step toward discovering an optimal solution.
2. Generate Ideas
State what the new ideas are about. Perhaps to create a new invention of some kind, improve an existing product or service,
or simply to gain a deeper insight into any subject.

3. Ask a Question:
It’s amazing how answers can present themselves with the help of some random stimulation – answers that come from the
same mind that asked the question!

STEP 2: GATHER RANDOM STIMULI

Close your eyes. Open the dictionary to any page and place your finger on the page. Open your eyes and write down whatever
word is closest to your finger. It’s very important to use that particular word whether you like the word or not. This technique
works best when there is no obvious relationship between the word and your subject. Don’t choose the word – let the word
choose you. Randomness is critical so use whatever word you point to, write it down, and don’t let your eyes wander over the
page, of course it’s a good idea to read the definition so you understand the full meaning of the word.

Repeat this procedure to select five or six random words from different pages in the dictionary.

Studies highlight that 50% of innovation processes will be gamified in the coming years. Gamification can help at different
phases in the innovation process: to optimize creative sessions, to improve co-creation, to start an innovation project, to
improve innovation hackathons, to generate new training formats, to identify profiles for innovation projects...

STEP 3: CREATE ASSOCIATIONS BETWEEN RANDOM WORDS, YOUR CHALLENGE

At this point you have reached the critical juncture that will determine your level of success in using Random Word
Stimulation.

Your objective is to create associations that connect the meaning of each random word to your subject in some way. Each new
association represents the seed of a new idea so the more associations you create – the better your chances of generating
useful results.

Exposure to the stimulus of random words will immediately trigger associations to experiences buried in your subconscious
mind. The process is automatic and inevitable. Many associations and the ideas they generate will not make sense in relation
to your subject. Be aware that new ideas often seem illogical, absurd, or completely irrelevant, when they first come into your
mind.

Our minds have been trained to make sense of things. Thoughts that do not make sense trigger a deeply conditioned Left-
Brain response of instantly discarding these thoughts as worthless fantasy. Learning to recognize this conditioned response
and bring it under managed control is essential. Catch the moment when you think “This Does Not Make Sense” and turn it
into a question of “How Could This Make Sense?”.
It’s the effort you make to answer this question that causes the brain to respond. Exercising the body results in increased
strength and enhanced capabilities of movement. Exercising the brain results in increased mental strength and enhanced
capabilities of thinking.

It does not matter if your associations make sense logically or not at this point. Find any way to connect the words to your
subject that you can think of. If you feel inhibited in any way make an effort to be a little outrageous until you overcome your
inhibitions. Did I say “a little”? No – what I meant to say was extremely outrageous!

Focus on creating as many new ideas as possible. Do not stop to justify your new ideas, for now it is enough that you have
them. Have faith in the fact that your subconscious mind brought these thoughts to light for a reason, even though the reason
may not be readily apparent. Success depends entirely on your willingness to temporally suspend the urge to discard new
ideas and allow yourself the freedom to explore them.

STEP 4: INCREASE YOUR ASSOCIATIONS

It was Aristotle (384 – 322 BC) that formulated the three laws of association. Apply these laws in as many ways as you can to
create your associations.

They are:

1. CONTIGUITY: This law explains how associations work by the stimulation of contact or nearness. A saddle may remind you
of a horse, a tree of a forest, a foot of a shoe.

2. SIMILARITY: This law explains how similar things produce associations. A cat could remind you of a tiger, a tent may provoke
the association with a log cabin, the human eye is similar to a camera, a stair is similar to an escalator.

3. CONTRAST: This law explains how we associate things that contrast one another. A dwarf may trigger associations of a giant,
day is a contrast to night, a sad face is a contrast to a happy face, black and white are contrasting colors, tall and short, new
and old, fresh and stale.

Take some time to consider each word individually and in combination. Be sure to write down everything that comes into your
mind, no matter how silly or irrelevant they may seem at first.
STEP 5: MAKE MORE CONNECTIONS.

Congratulations! You have just expanded your perceptions of your subject far beyond your normal patterns of thinking in ways
you would not have otherwise considered.

After a number of new associations have been generated, perhaps several dozen, you can begin to explore and discover ways
to apply your associations to the matter at hand. Applying random meaning to a subject suggests ways of looking at the
subject in a different context from which the subject is normally viewed. Discovering new ways to look at your subject will
start to generate new ideas automatically.

Just remember that generating new ideas is about quantity rather than quality. It’s like drilling for oil. You will often drill many
dry holes before you finally hit the gusher that brings the fortunes of success.

Keep in mind that due to our education, and the many other influences in our world, most of us lean toward left-brained,
logical thinking. Random Word Stimulation is by nature a decidedly right-brain activity. Depending on your current brain state
balance, you may find Random Word Stimulation awkward to use at first. This is why it is highly recommend to limit your initial
sessions to 10 to 15 minutes to avoid frustration.

The brain can take a few days or more to restructure its neural network to accommodate this new type of thinking. If you are
having trouble getting started, don’t worry about it. Just keep trying short, relaxed sessions until you acquire the habit of
producing results. Remember it’s the effort of trying that triggers the brain to adjust and it will adjust if you give it the time
and patience it needs.
