Take Notes When You Read
When you read, take notes of any ideas that pop into your mind. It is a good idea to get into the habit of reading something every day if possible. One idea or concept you read in one book might apply to another idea you have been working on. What you read in one place might trigger the much sought after “Aha” experience.
Read on many different and diverse subjects and you will have a more creative outlook on things. Don’t stick to reading just one subject. Try to read at least thirty minutes or more a day and read on different subjects as well as subjects you specialize in.
