Where do you get your best thinking done?

[BTOWN_HUSTLA]

I need to do some brainstorming / deep thought.

Where do you like to do yours?

In the past, I used to go to strip clubs to think mainly...just sit down, drink, look at the naked women and ponder life. Kind of strange but its a place I can just stare and not check my phone, email, TV, etc. Anywhere else, I can just surf the net on my phone, lots of distractions, etc.

The gym with my iPod for a few hours each early morning.

I won't ever give that up.

You listen to music? I should do podcasts and news.....maybe I'll try to do this..i've been trying to go to the gym in the AM before work....its doable for me.....but I wake up too late everyday.....

I would but I shower quick. i saw that there were some things you could take notes in the shower with.

Music, preferably techno/trance on the treadmill with Metallica and other loud music while lifting weights. Now that I think about it, though, I do my best thinking in the steam room or sauna after a workout. No music, no distractions, and you sweat out the "bad".

Sorry to interrupt this thread, but barfo, I was wondering if HCP signed some sort of contract that allows him to start stupid threads about himself. Threads that never seem to be moved to OT.

It isn't a contract so much as a series of bribes and sexual favors.

OK. I thought so. I hope it's worth it to you.

computer, late and night, with deadlines looming. that is when i'm at my most creative, by far

 

[MARIS61]

In my head.

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

Long walks.

In the past few years I try to think about one subject for 20 minutes straight a day. Seems easy enough, but it's shocking how often life (and an unfocused mind) can divert you. Doesn't really matter where. Man do I get some great business ideas doing this.

 

[ABM]

Unfortunately, in my car.

 

[bigbailes]

i've always loved to do this when i'm at the coast. take some time, especially at night and i just stare out at the sea and ponder things.

Wow, I'm having trouble going 10 seconds.

On the ergometer, stationary bike or elliptical trainer. It used to be when I went running, but my knee doesn't allow that activity any more. I also think well on the shitter.

While running\jogging alone.

[ucatchtrout]

In the morning, on the couch, with a cup of coffee....before breakfast....before everything.

 

[Mamba]

Shitter.

How does working out in the morning effect your day? Do you get tired later? Do you feel weak later in the day?

 

[Paxil]

Running or when I am in bed but 1/2 awake in the AM.

Epiphanies usually come to me during a huge shit/diarrhea.

I'm surprised at how many here find that feces focuses the mind. I find it pretty distracting, mostly due to the stink.
