“I think a 99 times and get nothing. I float in silence, and the truth comes to me.”
– Albert Einstein
All innovation starts with an idea. Or more likely, 99 bad ideas, and one good one. Our best new ideas tend to arise when we are relaxed, at play, in the shower, walking in nature or even in a dream. When the mind is calm. Not so much when we are anxious or over-thinking a problem or up against a deadline. A busy mind is not a good place to look for intuitive breakthroughs.
If you quiet your mind, you can engage that all important intuition. Meditation is a powerful way to do just that. That’s why we call it, ‘Intuitional Science’. You can train your mind to ‘float in silence’ so that your intuition can deliver the insights and solutions you seek.
