It's time to move 'doing nothing' to the top of your to-do list
Have you ever noticed how you have your best ideas when doing the dishes or staring out of the window? It's because when your body goes on autopilot, your brain gets busy connecting ideas and solving problems.
However, in the modern world it often feels as though we have completely removed boredom from our lives; we are addicted to our phones, we reply to our emails twenty-four hours a day, tweet as we watch TV, watch TV as we commute, check Facebook as we walk and Instagram while we eat. Constant stimulation has become our default mode.
In this easy-to-follow, practical book, award-winning journalist Manoush Zomorodi explores the connection between boredom and original thinking, and will show you how to ditch your screens to help unlock your most productive and creative self.
'Crammed with practical exercises for anyone who wants to reclaim the power of spacing out'
Gretchen Rubin, author of #1 New York Times Bestseller The Happiness Project
'If you've ever felt overwhelmed by the technology in your life, Manoush Zomorodi totally gets you' Tech Times
'A breezy and engaging book that is a little philosophy and a lot of self-help. This could do for unplugging what Marie Kondo's The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying did for decluttering' Booklist
