the week at work

This week at office was really hectic. So many things coming in from different directions without head or tail. Still at the end of it I got to learn new things out of it which I had never touched until now. New Things! well, all know that new things are cool and good learning experience and blah blah. But the truth is...it can only be felt first hand.
I guess I'm fortunate to be in that spot where I get that kick now and then. Apart from that, I also realized somewhere that in the run for being logical my creative side has been diminishing this time. It struck me when I was in that position where I wanted to actually create something from zero and I didnt have any inspiration around me. It took around a week to get those creative cells back to shape. And then ideas started flowing in. So then its true that based on repetitive action our brain makes patterns which we tend to use again and again ..which in turn makes those patterns deeper and stronger. That makes it even difficult to break to neuron patterns later. And slowly our creative juices start to dry up. Hmm..bad na..but if one keeps doing creative things and indulge in new ideas, he can create new patterns and become a 'creative person'. And like every other thing, it requires practice. I had been through Lateral Thinking by Edward D. Bono, and it really left an impact on me. We know so little about our thinking habits came as a surprise to me. It just exposes the whole pattern making stuff. Also teaches how to get out of that rut. ...suddenly gotta a call and gotta hurry to dinner! will catch up later with gyan.
