It's also better to drive slowly towards your goal than to speed in the wrong direction and never look at your map to get your bearings. After a few side projects that never went anywhere, I spend more time taking walks and just thinking about the direction I'm going and I'm spending less time doing unnecessary work as a result. Sometimes you need a break in able to come back to the project refreshed with a new outlook on things.
- eah13 14y agoI've also found walks to be super valuable. They're times where you can't get distracted because there's nothing else to do but think, like in the shower (which is why so many great ideas happen in each). They also get a little physical activity into your day which helps the brain work. When I take walks with my wife we have great convos that won't happen on the couch when we're exhausted. We walk this circular path around Duke's East campus, which is about 2 miles. Having a defined path like that helps too- you don't have to get distracted by where you're going or be temped to end it early.
