The document summarizes Denise R. Jacobs' presentation at the Frontend CH Conference in Zurich, Switzerland on creative flow and how to maximize creativity. The presentation discusses how creativity occurs in the brain during alpha waves, and strategies like daydreaming, playing, and mindfulness can help access this state. It also suggests tapping into imagination and one's subconscious for new ideas, and trusting the creative process by listening to ideas and letting them take form. The overall message is that creativity is a skill that can be developed by understanding how the brain works creatively and leveraging techniques to stay in a state of flow.

every waking hour.”
