The Subconscious Sandbox (Great story ideas often show up when you're fixing a cabinet door instead of trying to force the next sentence)

from The Quiet Quotient · host Jim Hansen

The conscious mind treats story problems like math problems. It tries to force a solution. The subconscious works differently. It turns things over quietly. It makes connections you weren't even aware existed. While you're scrubbing a pan or walking around the block, your brain is still working. It's sorting through books you've read, conversations you've overheard, experiences you've had, and emotions you've felt. It's connecting pieces in the background.
