The 2 modes of thinking

Deepika's avatar Self-Love and Self-Deprecation

If you can’t find the answer to a question or a problem, no matter how hard you try, stop thinking about it and do something else.

Sometimes, the brain is conditioned to think in a certain way in focused thinking mode. You are following the same pattern to solve or answer the question. Hence, you are not looking at alternative methods to solve it.

Moving from the problem allows the mind to open the doors of another type of thinking.

You may have consciously moved on to another task, but your brain is still trying to solve the problem in diffused thinking mode. It is still trying to connect the dots and ideas in your brain to find the answer. Maybe the answer was in another part of the brain and diffused thinking allows the mind to shift its focus from the regular pattern to another path.
