GET UNSTUCK BY GOING OBLIQUE
Even the most intrinsically motivated person sometimes gets stuck. So here’s a simple, easy, and fun way to power out of your mental morass. In 1975, producer
Brian Eno and artist Peter Schmidt published a set of one hundred cards containing strategies that helped them overcome the pressure-packed moments that always accompany a deadline. Each card contains a single, often inscrutable,
question or statement to push you out of a mental rut. (Some examples What
would your closest friend do Your mistake was a hidden intention. What is the
simplest solution Repetition is a form of change. Don’t avoid what is easy.) If you’re working on a project and find yourself stymied, pull an Oblique card from the deck. These brain bombs area great way to keep your mind open

despite constraints you can’t control. You can buy the deck at www.enoshop.co.uk/
or follow one of the Twitter accounts inspired by the strategies, such as http://twitter.com/oblique_chirps
