One of the reasons I advocate for creating white space is because insight rarely arrives when we’re forcing it.
By white space, I mean intentionally creating time with no agenda, no meeting, and no expectation that you need to produce something.
Research found that people generated roughly twice as many creative ideas while walking than while sitting.
It’s a reminder that some of our best thinking happens when we step away from the task at hand and give our minds room to wander.
