“Creativity is the residue of time wasted.” (Albert Einstein) All too true, ever reach that point of exhaustion (I give up, you’re mind wanders…) and the insight hits you like a train?!? Yeah, me too… Just when you worry you’re having the least productive day, bam, eureka! The really interesting part comes when a researcher studying you tells you a full 8 seconds before you have the insight, that it’s coming based off neural oscillations (alpha waves) in your brain. Now that’s mind-blowing in my opinion. What an exciting time to be alive!
