Charted One Habit Learn Form Creative And Genius minds

What if, the world’s most famous creative geniuses had one habit in common, would you try to follow it yourself?

Well, in the next few minutes, you will inevitably follow this habit in your daily routine. People in the world get seven to nine hours of sleep every night. You can see the observation is based on a famous creatives routine chart created by RJ Andrews, a storyteller, writer, and visualization artist Info We Trust

The chart breaks down how 16 of the most famous geniuses ever to live spent 24 hours in their days. These geniuses included Charles Darwin, Sigmund Freud, Charles Dickens, Benjamin Franklin, and Maya Angelou. Other than Angelou, all of the geniuses were White Men. They all got seven to nine hours of sleep a night.

Science tells us there's a very real connection between creativity and sleep, and sleep has proven benefits for pretty much every aspect of brain function. If there's one thing every genius needs, it's a well-functioning brain.

When we reach nighttime, this side of our brain becomes more active because less energy is being used to power the rest of our brain. This is partly what allows creative surges to happen.

Now, why do writers write at night?

“I often think that the night is more alive and more richly colored than the day.”

- Vincent Van Gogh

At the stage of sleep scientist REM sleep is beneficial to the creative process. A study has shown that this stage of sleep helps the brain connected unrelated ideas, which in turn aids creative problem-solving.

Apart from the impotence of sleep, what else we can learn from these geniuses and creative minds’ daily habits? One thing, a brisk walk, and sometimes more than one. Charles Darwin who was an English naturalist, took three walks a day. Again, you are familiar with its benefits. He wrote that moving or exercise encourages innovation. It quickly and effectively lightens the mood and also allows our intellect to relax. What else?

Decision fatigue is one reason that developing daily habits and routines can be such a powerful thing to do. The more we put our daily work habits--and life habits, too--on autopilot, the more energy our brains have for more challenging and meaningful cognitive tasks. And if you put some thought into your routines when you first create them, they can help you stick with healthy habits such as a daily workout or nutritious breakfast.

Why we are indecisive?

It comes from exhaustion and a lack of confidence but, do you know how powerful it can be daily? The more we put our daily work and life habits on autopilot (stop focusing on the outer world), the more energy our brains have for more challenging tasks. Here is how can get over this:

Write journal. Plan daily decisions at night

When you prioritize what’s important, everything will fall into place. Getting the most important thing done, does matter.

Stop making decisions. Start making commitments.

We all have things we say that are important to us:

I want to scale my business

I want to get into shape in the next six months

I want to start XYZ

Unfortunately, it does not work until you schedule them.

Making a decision requires time to ponder but commitment requires effort and actions. Making the right choice is crucial but scheduling the important things that you truly want to tackle is far more important than that.
