Comment Music or meditation? (Score 1) 102
Well, this study might have a point, but what about me? I listen to music all day, when I work, when I study, when I take a shower etc. I haven't noticed any changes in my creativity though. I view music more as a distraction to be honest.
The only thing which actually helps me with my creativity is when I sit still and have no other distractions. Meditation also helps me a lot.
The only problem I have with meditation is: it allows you to control your thoughts, so I guess you become more focused over time and your mind cannot wander as much to find creative ideas during the day.
What do you guys think?
