After this will be things I find
interesting from my readings on creativity.

• Say whatever’s on your mind. Don’t hold back hunches, guesses, wild ideas, images, intentions. [Notice that this is also very good advice on “brainstorming” or “lateral thinking”.]
• Speak as continuously as possible. Say something at least once every five seconds, even if only “I’m drawing a blank.”
• Speak audibly. Watch out for your voice dropping as you become involved.
• Speak as telegraphically as you please. Don’t worry about complete sentances and eloquence.
• Don’t overexplain or justify. Analyse no more than you would normally.
• Don’t elaborate past events. Get into the pattern of saying what you’re thinking now, not of thinking for a while and then describing your thoughts.
