When we’re in the weeds on projects and our to-do lists are many miles long, we lose the time and energy to do what is most important for us to do great work: think.
Deep, meandering, creative thought is at the core of who we are — and absolutely central to our careers. But as is the case for everyone, it so often gets pushed to the side in favor of meetings and tasks (and, let’s be honest, scrolling our phones).
We’re not even talking deep thought about work. We’re talking thinking in general. When was the last time you just thought about something for awhile? Asked questions for the sake of asking questions? Went down a thought rabbit hole?
Our favorite people are the curious ones. The ones who ask “what if?” and wonder what might be.
So this week, join us as we fight for time to think creatively. And send us a note to let us know what you’re curious about!
(On our list at the moment: the future of work in the wake of the pandemic, home design for virtual employees, and how to address the prison industrial complex.)
