peak creativity often comes from large, unstructured blocks of free time

reading, writing, having conversations, building something, walking, exploring fc, etc

it looks unproductive at the time, but i personally find it leads to the most meaningful breakthroughs that we couldn't have anticipated 🌱

These blocks of time aren't common practice in our always busy and over-scheduled American culture. Do you find ways to incorporate enough of these unstructured blocks of time into your days, weeks or your year? 

If so, how? If not, why?

my active work hours are from 11am to 3pm. that's my busy time + my writing time when I'm working on writing. sometimes I have another hour or two in the evening

the rest of the time I'm at home with my husband and my baby, doing stuff — cooking, chores, playground, etc.

I’ve found I procrastinate sometimes to open the doorway to an epic flow state. 

If boredom is too high to enter flow, my subconscious puppets my mind around just long enough until the impending deadline manufactures enough anxiety to enter into the channel.

I actually find that times where I’m under limitations or boundaries but still expected to create or improvise, that I tend to be quicker to explore my own creativity. It’s like the inner me just doesn’t want the limits so I’m more apt to find new ways to flourish in that space.
