I must offer a few words on day dreaming . Our digitally influenced world is so jampacked with doing that we forget being . Please , go outside , sit down and stare at the clouds , feel the air around you , notice the color of things , and just feel yourself in your own skin . Think big and expansive thoughts . It will do you good .
Here is my inspirational process :

I allow myself time to think . I unplug and do not abide any intrusions on my solitude . I also practice Transcendental Meditation ( TM ) to help me focus . For this , I set aside two different 20-minute sessions each day .
