Hello,
I read an annotation of the book Imagine: How Creativity Works by Jonah Lehrer. In this review the author describes what the book is about: "Shattering the myth of muses, higher powers, even creative "types", Jonah Lehrer demonstrates that creativity is not a single "gift" possessed by the lucky few. It's a variety of distinct thought processes... Lehrer reveals the importance of embracing the rut, thinking like a child, and daydreaming productively..."
Could someone explain to me what "embrace the rut" means in this context?
Thank you very much.
