There’s a writing project I’ve been very slowly working on for a while, and stuck on how to approach some of it, and last night the solution kinda ✨came to me✨ out of nowhere (but not really nowhere as the brain or subconscious is always working on things and then if you give it enough time and relax a little usually you get some idea or direction and isn’t that lovely) and anyway. This is a frustratingly vague description of an internal event but I’m just saying I’m grateful for it. I like how creativity flows and is not dependent on hustle but on rest.
Rene van Belzen Well up to a point. The subconscious mind is great at integrating disparate parts, not so great at details. This is why you can’t read texts in dreams. The details still have to be filled in with hard work and logic.
Todor Vlaev “a frustratingly vague description of an internal event” - so well put! Yet so relatable!
annie's micro(b)log @renevanbelzen absolutely. Hard work ahead from the conscious mind. I love the interaction between the two parts…. Subconscious throws up a vision or epiphany. Conscious says Okay let’s get to work.
annie's micro(b)log @todor it turns out we’re all living really similar lives underneath the surface
Greg Moore Congratulations on your solution! It reminds me of a night where I literally dreamed of the solution to a coding problem I’d been trying to solve. I went into work the next morning, typed what I had dreamed, and it worked.
annie's micro(b)log @gregmoore that is SO cool. My subconscious isn’t that specific yet but maybe I can get there… 🙂
