Hidden Network's High Five - 5 unusual places where your gold making idea might come to you

A list of 5 unusual places where inspiration strikes more often than not

While may be difficult to prove scientifically, does it happen to you that there are some rooms in your house where you are more likely to be struck with an idea than others? It has happened to me but I still have to find the one that pays for my retirement, in the meantime if you keep digging for ideas in those unusual places you might find one that makes gold for you. And without anything else to say, let's dive into this list:

1. 1st place: Toilet

   It might not be the best place to write a book, or the most comfortable, but that brief moment where you are taking a pee or the longer moment when you are taking a dump, where the thought of urgency stops and the sense relief takes over, in my opinion is a very helpful feeling for your brain to put up some work.

2. 2nd place: Shower

   Not only showering keeps us clean and makes us better singers (according to some article I read ages ago it's because the humidity in the room while we shower makes the sound better), but it also frees us momentarily from worries and other thoughts. That's then when you are more receptive to whatever your brain wants to tell you. And remember to save as much water as you can, you never know when you'll need it.

3. 3rd place: Cooking

   Technically not a place in itself, but it's kinda related to the next item which is also in the kitchen, maybe. There are recipes where you have to wait for a certain amount of time for stuff to happen, or just recipes that you know so well and do it so automatically, that you brain just spaces out. So, the next time you are making chicken nuggets you might also find yourself a gold nugget in the form of a good idea.

4. 4th place: Washing dishes

   Related to the previous point and for those of us who either don't like using a dishwasher or don't have one, the silver lining is that washing dishes can be a relaxing activity if you plan it accordingly. And a relaxed brain is a powerful machine.

5. 5th place: Outside walking the dog

   If you have a dog you surely have at least a couple of routes planned for when it needs to go out. Like with the previous 4 points, we are just looking for that activity that is limited in time and it can be done without putting too much thought into, so we can let our brain open and receptive to ideas from the outside. Which by the way, if you have a dog, you might be interested in this Chesscake Dog Mat.
