三步打通思路：其实你不用冥思苦想

Step 1: Think on Paper (30 Minutes)

I have a white board in my office where I do all of my thinking. I draw and doodle; I cut and paste. I use words and text to mold my ideas and explore my problems.

第一步：在纸上思考（约30分钟）
在我的办公室里，有一个用来思考所有问题的白板。我用它画图、涂鸦、剪切、粘贴。我用文字和段落表达自己的思想，探索问题的解决之道。

2. Brainstorm (1 hour)

The phrase “two heads are better than one” is an understatement. Brainstom is a great tool for generating new ideas.

第二步：头脑风暴（约1小时）
俗话说：三个臭皮匠顶个诸葛亮，一点都不为过。头脑风暴是个激发新思想的好方法。

3. Take a Mini-Vacation (2-6 hours)

Take a what? Yes, a mini-vacation. Decompress and disconnect. This has helped me solve my biggest problems with the least amount of effort. You’ve got to give your subconscious breathing room. My best ideas are not the ones I get during a mastermind session or when I’m writing them out. They come 2-48 hours after I’ve done my deep thinking or had a really good masterminding session.

第三步：休息一下（约2-6小时）
什么？？没错！休息一下！ 减减压，分散一下注意力，这种方法曾让我花最少的力气解决了最大的难题。你得让你的潜意识有呼吸的空间。我最好的那些点子既不是在头脑风暴的时候，也不是在纸上思考出来的。它们产生于我深入思考或者充分头脑风暴“之后”的2-48个小时。
