Creation queue and more on agency
Speaking of different queues my brain uses to burn calories, I missed an important one: the creation queue. Creating something nonexistent, a code, a photograph, or a piece of writing.
And one thing about this queue is different: it creates more leads/ideas than others. It's a self-inserting mechanism; the more time you spend here, the longer the queue gets with more items/ideas. Like the idea of queues generated when I started to write here, which then led to the agency idea because I was thinking which queue could generate more agency.
So on the topic of agency, I have some ideas to answer how to reinforce it: Embrace being stuck. This is the sign you are at the end of the track; time to change. Instead of running from being stuck, run to it.
Clear thinking. Get ideas out of the mind by writing or talking about them with your people.
Break it down. Imagine a ruler and ask where am I. Then ask how to go from 3 to 4.
Aspiration. Find people you admire. Study them.
Some of this comes from here, and being stuck is an idea from Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance.
