Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon (AMZN) and Blue Origin, has shared his unique approach to productivity, which involves allowing his mind to wander during meetings. Bezos believes that this strategy fosters creativity and problem-solving. He encourages “messy meetings” where ideas are freely exchanged, without a set end time. Bezos argues that this approach, which some may consider inefficient, can actually enhance productivity, creativity, and happiness. A 2016 study supports Bezos’s approach, finding that allowing the mind to wander can significantly improve creativity.
