1. Get to a work- or task-free space -the creative default network in your brain thrives when you aren't distracted
2. Try not to set any objective for your mind-wandering. Free yourself up to let your imagination roam to unlikely and unexpected places
3. Disrupt yourself: Add a dose of novelty to whatever task-free experience you're using in order to activate your brain's default network. Meet somebody outside your usual circle, go to a museum exhibition on your own. Novelty helps shake the brain out of its familiar cognitive patterns, opening up opportunities to engage in new ways of thinking and being. https://www.fastcompany.com/90204263/a-very-short-guide-to-the-most-creative-part-of-your-brain?
