- set aside 10 minutes, each and every day
- have pen and paper handy
- allow yourself the freedom to think crazy thoughts
- don’t worry if nothing really productive springs to mind right away
- periodically scan over your notes from these sessions as things may op into your mind after they have “marinated” for a while
- if no ideas pop into your head pick a fun topic and doodle a bit
- use word association to get things rolling if you feel stuck e.g. thinking -> thoughts -> mind -> brainstorm -> brain rain
