The answer lies on the surface -- when you do not think of anything, your synapses are resetting. And in the hybernated state, the brain has no other options other than generate random data to fill itself. Most of it will be crap. Some -- will turn out as a pure fresh genius ideas. And very important thing -- start doing something before. That way your thoughts will be put towards that task.

1. Very interesting research that is not only insightful, but also quite funny. There are many great examples that only reinforces his statement.

2. In my opinion doubt is the opportunity to improve and procrastination is just a part of the process of creating something astonishing. Deadlines are a great cure for procrastination.

3. Original thinkers are people who take their time to come up with the best solution. The process is slow, but it pays off in the end.

This video is surprisingly popular on this blog. I am for sure consider myself a procrastinator actually I finished my thesis project in 6 days so I do know what I’m talking about. For me it wasn’t that I didn’t have an idea it’s that I have no idea how to start. I had to force myself into work by deadline and just get through it. When the borders of the work become clear and I new what I had to do actual implementation was easy.

I like this research because I am interested in this question. On personal experience, I was convinced that not only procrastination provides an opportunity to focus on one question and delve into it, find an answer or a solution, prepare a speech. I believe that meditation is similar to procrastination, for the results you need to get. Meditation helps not only to relax morally and to think about what requires concentration. Meditation is an excellent base for external balance too.
With yoga, I learned to stop when I need it and for a while to dive into thoughts, so I rarely have excitement and doubt.
This is interesting because the more I think, the more ideas, the more ideas, the greater the choice. It helps to choose from more options the best, this is for me originality.

Week 12 (12.01-18.01.15) Are you an early bird or a night owl ?

Owls are nocturnal creatures. They’re wide awake at night and they sleep during the day. If this sounds like bliss to you, then, like about 20 percent of the population who find themselves most active at around 9 pm, you may fall into the same category as our feathered friend. Night owls often have difficulty waking up in the morning, and like to be up late at night.  Studies of animal behaviour indicate that being a night owl may actually be built into some people’s genes. This would explain why those late-to-bed, late-to-rise people find it so difficult to change their behaviour. The trouble for night owls is that they just have to be at places such as work and school far too early. This is when the alarm clock becomes the night owl’s most important survival tool. Experts say that one way for a night owl to beat their dependence on their alarm clocks is to sleep with the curtains open. The Theory is that if they do so, the morning sunlight will awaken them gently and natura...

Week 4 [04.11-10.11.19] Dark matter

If you don't live in a big city in Poland, you can observe many stars at night. Did you ever wonder how would look our sky in the next millions of years if we would count only on existing proven astrophysical theories and calculations? It would be absolutely empty. All  celestial bodies  in the galaxy are rotating around the biggest black hole in the middle of galaxy (in Milky Way this black hole is 6.4  billion times heavier than our sun)  with such speed that the gravity generated by galaxy’s observable matter could not possibly hold them together. This leads us to  conviction   that something we cannot see is at work and is giving galaxies extra mass, generating the extra gravity that galaxies need to stay intact. Something, that will ensure us that our sky will remain the same as it was a million years ago. The official name of this strange and unknown matter is the “dark matter”. Unlike normal matter, dark matter does not interact with the electroma...
