If you want to be a successful entrepreneur, author, musician, or artist of any kind, get a dog. They'll interrupt your day – and you'll be better for it. Whether I'm on a roll or feeling stuck, once I start pressuring myself to keep on going, I know it's time for a walk. When I'm reluctant, thank goodness my dogs insist.
“If you are seeking creative ideas, go out walking. Angels whisper to a man when he goes for a walk.” —Raymond Inmon
Although it seems counterproductive, this practice always attracts a ridiculously creative idea or solution that brings everything together in a way I could have never conceived had I remained hunkered down at my desk. I return to work brimming with enthusiasm and praising my dogs for the inconvenience.
What at first seems like an inconvenience often turns out to be Divine guidance in disguise.
