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.

but I do a lot of good thinking during that "other time" like if I'm taking my boy and my dog for a walk

(and often I also log on, I just can't concentrate deeply with the baby there)
