How do you get your best ideas?

How do you get your best ideas? Do you have a process for unlocking the creative side of your brain?
For me, it’s a combination of space to think + inspiration.
Here are some things I do to come up with new ideas:
To create space to think
- Meditate
- Go for a walk
- Get a massage
- Have 8 hours sleep
- Clear your schedule
- Take a holiday
- Treat yourself
- Mindmap at a cafe (on paper)
- Don’t drink
For inspiration
- Listen to podcasts
- Surround yourself with active people
- Read Kindle books
- Listen to Audible books
- Attend a webinar
- Exercise hard
- Read autobiographies
- Take courses
