You might think that creatives as diverse as Internet entrepreneur Jack Dorsey, industrial design firm Studio 7.5, and bestselling Japanese novelist Haruki Murakami would have little in common. In fact, the tenets that guide how they – and exceptionally productive creatives across the board – make ideas happen are incredibly similar. Here are 10 laws of productivity we’ve consistently observed among serial idea executors: 1. Break the seal of hesitation.

A bias toward action is the most common trait we’ve found across the hundreds of creative professionals and entrepreneurs we’ve interviewed. 2. When our ideas are still in our head, we tend to think big, blue sky concepts. 3. Trial and error is an essential part of any creative’s life. To avoid ‘blue sky paralysis,’ pare your idea down to a small, immediately executable concept. 4. When working on in-depth projects, we generate lots of new ideas along the way. 5. 6. 7. 8. Few activities are more of a productivity drain than meetings. 9. Nomadic State of Mind handcrafted rope sandals, wandering the planet...

Barefoot Rights. Why I feel so strongly opposed against putting shoes on, even for a store 'policy'. There's two sides to this. On the one hand, why I prefer not to wear them, and on the other hand, why I think it is wrong to give in to an arbitrary and discriminatory rule.

Both sides are important in their own way. First, why I prefer to go barefoot. 1) Most people do not use their sense of touch as much as our senses of hearing, sight, or even taste. But now that I have experienced it, and become used to this enrichment of actually using all my senses, I feel it as a great loss to limit this again. I often compare it to having to wear extremely dark glasses that take all the color out of life, or wearing ear plugs that muffle all sound. 2) It also gives me a spiritual 'connectivety' with Earth. Second, why I think it's wrong to simply give in to these 'No shoes, no service' demands. 1) Health laws. 2) Safety. I) Bare feet aren't nearly as dangerous as many people think. 4) 'Bare feet are gross'. -o- Mens Sandals - Nomadic State of Mind.

You’re sitting in bumper-to-bumper traffic, the radio is on the fritz and it’s a sweltering 100 degrees outside. As you mumble a list of ear-blistering obscenities to yourself, you imagine how wonderful it would be if your car could just lift off and fly away.

Ah, yes, the flying car. We’ve all wanted one, and it appears two companies have come one step closer to grasping one of engineering’s many Holy Grails. The two companies are Netherlands-based PAL-V and Massachusetts-based Terrafugia. “It’s the sort of milestone we have been looking forward to for years,” said PAL-V’s co-founder and CEO Robert Dingemanse during a phone call Tuesday. Meanwhile, on Monday, Terrafugia announced that its prototype, the Transition, had completed its first flight and would be presented at the New York International Auto Show later this week. “I personally have an order in for each of them,” said Levine of the PAL-V and the Terrafugia.
