HOW I GET INTO THE ZONE

What is pure bliss and joy? Being in the zone. A creative zone where you can focus, think, and create like a stream of water, with no delay or pause.

Standing desk, in-ear monitor earbud/headphones in

Friday Night Cypher (Big Sean) on loop. Or A WRITTEN TESTIMONY by Jay Electronica on loop. Finding that one song, and just keep looping it.

Good caffeine buzz

A nice coffee in the morning. ‘Wink’ light roast coffee from Amazon (whole beans), grind it, and extract it with a ‘Clever Dripper’ coffee extractor. Intermittent fasted. Only breaking your fast in the evening with a meat-heavy meal, so you won’t be hungry for the day next.

A semi-public workplace?

I have found having some ‘stochastic resonance’ of white-noise (random people noise) is beneficial to focusing. Finding a good spot, natural light, big ceilings, big floor-to-ceiling windows, and a good standing desk. The ability to write, this, blog, whatever while dancing on your feet.

What do you do once you’re in the zone?

Simple:

Focus on your artistic and creative production.

Blog posts, videos, photos, whatever!
