Take a moment and think back to when you decided ‘to go it alone’ or step up to the challenge of being a business leader or entrepreneur.
The reasons may have been many. Was it to have more flexibility, set your own standards, widen your network, and create innovative and unique ideas without being overwhelmed by continuous bureaucracy? Or perhaps it was the desire to collaborate with others to achieve greater success?
The pressure of time pressure and finding time for creativity
In today’s fast-paced business environment, success is often linked to development speed. Time pressure seems to have worsened, with clients wanting jobs delivered yesterday! And let’s not forget the volume of paperwork, emails and uncontrolled growth in project scope…resulting in disrupted thinking time.
Embrace creative thinking
The Neuroscience of creativity shows you are wired differently. You need to allow higher levels of curiosity, and a desire for novelty. Your brain needs the opportunity to wander, to be restless, you need spontaneity and free flowing thinking to boost your creativity and generate many ideas.
Routine tasks are a real turn-off for creativity and innovation. Research suggests multitasking ruins productivity and inspiration, causes mistakes, and impedes the creative process.
