Here's a creativity hack.

Lose the headphones. 🎧 ❌

Don’t take my word for it: Listen to Paul Smith.

The British fashion designer was about to board a flight.

An announcement came through saying that the plane was delayed.

In for a long wait, passengers donned headphones and switched on devices.

Smith opted for a walk around the airport instead.

As he strolled, he noticed a tiny lucky charm lying on the floor. It had probably fallen off a bracelet.

He picked it up, and had a bolt of inspiration: why not use these as buttons?

He did. And sold thousands of shirts.

Inspiration is everywhere.
Headphones and screens can prevent you from seeing it.
