Flashes of genius

Imagine being told that you belong in the “evil house” when you're an 11-year-old

The skull's gray matter is pulsing

Brilliant ideas often emerge during the moments when you find yourself engrossed in the task of meticulously slicing up your dinner on a worn-out cutting board that has seen better days. Likewise, it can strike when your attention wanes in a meeting, causing you to gaze absentmindedly at your boss, indulging in whimsical visions. And, of course, such flashes of genius are known to manifest themselves while you stand beneath the cascading water of a shower, harmonizing melodiously to an old clas…

Sea of random thoughts.

The best ideas usually pop up when you're busy chopping up vegetables on your cutting board that isn't aging well, when you can't focus in a meeting and you're starting blankly at your boss, imagining what they look like crying, and when you're standing in the shower, singing ‘And I would walk five hundred miles…’. In other words, good ideas come randomly, with no specific pattern you can discern. We like to call these ideas, ‘shower thoughts’, because as priorly stated, they do tend to show up…

You know those “deep thoughts” circulating Facebook in crappy template format? The ones that are probably being shared by your drunk aunt or that completely unsubtle girl who is always going through something? Well, it's time they got a bit of a refresh. It seems like it's the most banal sentiments and relatable quips that get emblazoned on t-shirts, or even made into a neon sign for some

It's big brain time

Ummmm I'm a genius

My comebacks are just so much better after I've collected my thoughts for 2-5 business days

Shower thoughts are a real hit or miss. Either they're horrifically funny, or terribly scary. I'd like to think that the best ones are a bit of both. The most genius thoughts we have in life don't come to us when we're stressing at work… no, they come to us when we're singing U2 at the top of our lungs whilst pretending to play the guitar, warm water gushing over our heads like a waterfall. Someone in the next room may or may not be yelling at us, demanding that we shut up. In other words, good…

Good ideas are never born when you're on the brink of a mental breakdown or having a panic attack at work. I am convinced that the best ideas actually come to mind when you're simply chilling. We can take Isaac Newton as an example, as it has historically been suggested that he came up with the law of universal gravitation after an apple plopped onto his head, while he was resting under a tree. There is no actual evidence to support the theory, but the myth has not been entirely dispelled, so w…

How can you know?

Interesting observations...

I am convinced that good ideas were not born throughout the day while dealing with a bunch of issues and complications at work. Take Isaac Newton, for example. Although there is no evidence to suggest that an apple actually landed on his head (To be fair, this was a long time ago, before social media informed everybody of what every human being was doing at any given moment), we are led to believe that his observation of the fact, caused him to develop his law of universal gravitation. As in, w…
