My idea process has been like this all the time lol. If you have wondered if there was a particular period of time that you have sorts of new ideas to work the most efficiently, I have the answer for you !
Generally, people who postpone their works until the very near deadline are seemed to have more ideas than the other who don’t. Is this statement true ? Well actually no, it is not completely true. Organizational psychologist Adam Grant took a experiment to figure this out. People participated in are asked to generate new business ideas and then independent readers will evaluate how useful and creative they are. They are separated into two groups : some are asked to do the task right away, some are assigned to procrastinate with Minesweeper dangling in front of them for either five or ten minutes. The result was surprising : the people with Minesweeper in front of them for five minutes are 16% higher than the other two groups. “But Minesweeper is not the driver of the effects, if you played the game before the task, there will be no creativity boost” he said, “It’s only when you are told that you are going to deal with a problem and then you start procrastinating, but the task is still active in the back of your mind that you start to have more ideas. Procrastination gives you time to consider divergent ideas, to think in nonlinear way and to make unexpected leaps”.
