Learning Challenge - Time Management

The article I chose to read and learn about was: Being Busy Is Killing Our Ability to Think Creatively.

It was interesting to learn that being busy is just an information overload and inhibits our ability to be creative. I would think that being busy makes people more creative because they're always thinking and going.

I did know that creativity required thinking and quiet because how else do you get your creative juice flowing.

I'm curious to explore for myself if taking time to help hit the reset button so I can get my creative juices flowing would help me with my storytelling. Next time I tell a story I want to spend about 30 minutes just thinking about how exactly I'm going to change the story and make it my own instead of jumping right on into writing it.

  1. Love the meme! Time management is always something that is interesting to learn more and more about. I agree that you'd think the busier you are the more creative you'd be because you're always here, there, everywhere. Also, I always try to find the time to set extra time aside to figure out exactly what I want to write and change, but I do find myself just writing sometimes and seeing where it goes. Great post!

I've found the more I write the better I get at it, especially when it comes to my personal statements. The second meme made me laugh. I've always been a goal setter and while it can be sad to miss your goal it's good to even get close to reaching it because there is always next time! Cat Meme 1 Cat Meme 2

Week 5 Story - The Births of Dasaratha's Sons

One morning, a very pregnant woman named Sita woke up and started her day just like every other day, but today would be the day that she would give birth to her four boys. After she woke up, she went about her day like normal, she went to yoga class and then went to work. At work she started having contractions but decided they were far enough apart that she didn't need to worry.  A couple hours later, her contractions started getting closer together - about 7 minutes apart - so she called her husband, Dasaratha, and they decided it was time to go to the hospital! After today they were going to be parents, they were so excited! Once her labor begun, the sky turned dark which was awfully peculiar since it was only 3:00 pm so it should've been totally bright outside and in that moment and her first son was born, Bharata. Even though she was tired, she still had three more boys. As her second son was about to be born, it started to get really windy and rain started pouring. ...
