Rearrange things in your home and daily life. Try out new types of food;
consider decorating a room in colours and fabrics you would not normally
think of using; rearrange the furniture; take up a new hobby and expand
your social circle.
Deliberately gather inputs from unrelated settings.
Take time out to discuss a problem you want to solve with people from
entirely different backgrounds. If you are a business person, then ask a
teacher or a priest or a musician.
Read a different magazine, see a foreign movie,
drive a new route home, find some new inspiration in a different source.
Place yourself in a different environment and it will help you see
concepts and ideas you can adapt. If you visit an Eskimo in his igloo,
like Clarence Birdseye, you may come back with an idea as good as the
one that built the frozen food industry.
Creativity
requires spending time "doing nothing" - workaholism guarantees its
death
