Quiet moments
In our busy, fast-paced lives as students, teachers, and scientists, it can be easy to “go, go, go” all the time.
But, sometimes we need to just step back, do something else, or otherwise give our brains time to just “be.”
It is often in those quiet moments that inspiration or solutions to problems are allowed space to enter our minds.
So take care of yourself! Put your phone and computer down and disconnect. Give yourself time to process, synthesize, or just think whatever crazy thought pops into your head. It might just be the answer you were waiting for!
