Water covers about 75 percent of the planet. The human body is about 60 percent water, and the human brain is about 85 percent water. Water is needed to think, to live. Is it any wonder then that H2O can serve as a constant source of inspiration?
Take a Shower to Brainstorm Ideas
Can’t seem to think of an idea for a new article? Hop in the shower. There, all distractions are eliminated. No ringing telephone, no Internet, no television to hinder the creative process. In a 15-minute shower, one may come up with numerous ideas, more than he or she would have come up with by sitting at the computer.
Think about it. In the shower, one is left alone with their thoughts. Since there is nothing to draw attention away from those thoughts, there is more time to really contemplate them. Paying attention to these thoughts and taking note of them before returning to the writing process can help new ideas emerge. Don't force anything, just let the thoughts come naturally.
