| "Doodle It" |
How many times have you wanted to jot something down while you were enjoying a meal? Maybe it was a flash of insight or some other tidbit you had to capture and pin down before it escaped you.
A lot of great ideas began as doodles on a dinner napkin. I read once that the Avanti designed by Sherwood Egbert, was a result of sketches he had doodled while on a flight out of Chicago.
At a recent meeting I attended, several people told me the only way they survived office meetings was to doodle their way through it, on everything from scrap paper and memos to cocktail sized napkins. One guy was even drawing the other people in the meeting who were nodding off. Doodling at office meetings has probably saved some people's sanity. It seems to be growing in popularity and is an entertaining way to stay awake at dull meetings or to pass the time while awaiting a restaurant meal.
For today, doodle on a dinner napkin while you are having a meal or a cuppa, even if it is at home. Use a pen and allow yourself a minute to draw whatever pops into your head. Who knows where it might lead.
