What is necessary to be creative?

I am most creative when I have three ingredients​:

​

• Time

• Quiet

• Movement

 

​​I like to slowly mull things over. I think of creativity like a coffee maker, where ideas slowly percolate over time. I enjoy peaceful quiet while making creative decisions, as I slowly envision the outcomes of different situations, and when I get stuck, nothing gets me unstuck like gentle movement, like a walk in the woods, or practicing yoga.
