The best business ideas come from noticing what's working and doing it better, faster, or for a different audience.
Back to Beliefs
Boredom is essential for creativity and development
Evidence
Jesse credits being bored as a child with developing his creativity, patience, and ability to self-soothe
Implication
Constantly stimulating children (and adults) may harm their creative development and problem-solving abilities
Counter Belief
Structured activities and enrichment provide better development than unstructured boredom
Example Application
Allow children to experience boredom without immediately providing entertainment, letting them develop their own creative solutions
