How should one come up with an idea?
How should one come up with an idea?
like what are the best methods to get the brain active to create something, most of the things i want to require an idea but the truth is i have nothing and im not sure how to get an idea or if its even possible for me due to my autism or how my brain works.
maybe im just being hard on myself i use to come up with so many ideas but theses days i have nothing or just half a mess that i cant seem to finish cleaning, if that makes sense.
is there a suggestion, tip, method, or something that can get my brain started. if your wondering what im trying to do i would like to make a short comic i feel if doing so i might learn something or it would be interesting. i heard sticky notes are good but i dont want a room full of sticky notes, that just dosent seem right?

Let yourself be bored. Daydream. Look out the window. Do nothing. Try to meditate.
Connexions seem to happen when we try less, and connexions lie at the center of creativity.
I had all my best ideas stareing out of the window on long train or bus journeys. These days I'm constantly "entertained" by my phone so it's much harder to get into the same state of mind.
I struggled early with meditation because I kept remembering things I needed to do and coming up with ideas. I had to keep a notepad with me in order to let my mind quiet down.
I tend to figure out code, wiring, etc. problems while I'm in the shower just after I get up in the morning and not even thinking about it.
Edit: Grammar
The secret is pretty simple: move the problem out of your working memory and wait for insight to come.
