inevitably, i found myself doodling, as i've done all my school life -- but this is the first time i actually felt good about it.
if you like it, give it a click.
via wired science:
'people may doodle as a strategy to help themselves concentrate," said study co-author jackie andrade, a university of plymouth psychologist. "we might not be aware that we’re doing it, but it could be a trick that people develop because it helps them from wandering off into a daydream.'
and
'it takes a large cognitive load to daydream. that has a big impact on the task you’re meant to be doing," said andrade. "doodling takes only a small cognitive load, but it’s just enough to keep your mental resources focused on the main task.'
so, i doodled, guilt-free.
others were doodling too... i was the only one taking a picture of mine, obviously desperate to get the day's picture. i'm not crazy about it, but it'll do for my 365 project.
