If you’re facing a problem that’s difficult to solve. Write about it in an email. Make it a freewrite. Just get the notes down.
Then if the solution doesn’t show itself there. Text your thoughts about a problem to a friend. (If anything, it’ll be fun when they ask what the hell you’re talking about.)
If that doesn’t work, get out a pad of paper and a pen and write it there.
We can be writing about the same problem across digital, phones and paper, but what gets shown will be vastly different because our brains think about things differently based on the medium we’re using.
Stay Positive & Use It To Your Advantage
