Give Yourself a Whack on the Side of the Head

A followup to my graphic standards and style guide post:
The more often you do something in the same way, the more difficult it is to think about doing it in any other way. Break out of this “prison of familiarity” by disrupting your habitual thought patterns. Eat ice cream for breakfast. Wear red sox. Visit a junk yard. Stay home in the morning. Work in the evening. Take the slow way home. Sleep on the other side of the bed. Such jolts to your routines will lead to new ideas.

So ask yourself: How can you whack your thinking?
