Do you often find yourself juggling multiple tasks at the same time? Do you frequently switch between different apps, tools, or projects? If so, you might be falling into the traps of multitasking and context switching.

One of the most common challenges that creative people face is finding inspiration and developing their own style. Whether you are a writer, a painter, a musician, or any other kind of artist, you may struggle with expressing your unique voice and vision. In this blog post, I will share some tips and strategies that can help you overcome this challenge and unleash your creativity.

Skeuomorphism and neuomorphism are two design styles that have been used in user interfaces (UI) for digital products. They both aim to create a realistic and intuitive experience for the users, but they have different approaches and effects.

This is not the case though, as it is more closely linked to our perception than previously thought.

We have two minds. Not literally. That’d be creepy. Our brain is split into three primary functional areas:

The old (croc) brain separates all of our surroundings into three categories — consisting of edible, dangerous or sexy. It also regulates primal functions such as breathing, digestion and reflexive actions. The second part is the midbrain and it controls emotions. Finally, the third section is the new brain. The new brain is responsible for intentional, purposeful actions such as planning.

We are far better at recognition than we are at recall. Our brain has been designed with the ability to recognize things faster than recalling memories. Our perceptual system works in such a way that similar perceptions in similar contexts cause similar patterns of neural activity. 

Our outlook on our surroundings are influenced on three primary factors, which are our past experiences, our present — current context and our future goals.

Our past experiences influence how we react given a certain situation. EULAs as well as how people use the web are great examples of this.
