Organize workspace. A clean and organized workspace helps to keep messy thoughts in order.Walking. Sitting in a chair is not enough to come up with good ideas. In such cases, I take a walk outside and organize my thoughts while looking at the natural scenery.Games. I like to play games for a change.Partly because I enjoy playing games, but also because looking at the UI and animation effects used in games is a good reference for my design work.
