Working On And Working Out

Find your own Active Creative Meditation.

I have talked about “Active Creative Meditation” before – if you establish a playground for your creativity, then your brain is free to connect dots that you may not have even known were there.

And this can really reinvent your business.

So what you need to do is quiet yourself on a regular basis and then give your creativity permission to go wild. This is a simple yet powerful tool for your business, and as a small business owner it’s your responsibility to make space in your life for creativity and the reimagining of your future.

Cycling on a stationary bike is a fantastic environment for Active Creative Meditation.

The repetition of the activity combined with an elevated heart rate can push creative thinking into overdrive.

Compare that to bombing down a steep mountain bike trail, navigating ruts, rocks, and trees while adrenaline is coursing through every vein. I love downhill mountain biking (just check my medical records). It’s exciting, mind-bending, and borderline addictive–but it’s not even close to being a fertile environment for creative thinking.

But stationary cycling in a garage or gym absolutely is.

Build yourself a mental playground, and let your imagination create a new future for your business.
