Pros sketch all the time
Here's a little secret about the work habits of seasoned professionals like math teachers, professors, and engineers: THEY ARE SKETCHING ALL THE TIME.
They sketch when they're at the restaurant waiting for their lunch.
They sketch in meetings.
They sketch when they're bored.
And they'll sketch on anything: Paper, napkins, whiteboards, and yes ... even Wipebook whiteboard notebooks and dry erase flipcharts.
SKETCHING LETS YOU EXTERNALIZE YOUR THOUGHTS
Sketching is a way to both simplify and crystallize your thoughts when you need to work out a problem.
Especially if you have to break down each phase of your problem to envision your next step or move.
Sketching provides a way to externalize those thoughts -- allowing you to subsequently expand upon them and make them accessible to the outside world. Stated otherwise: it gives you a way to unlock the series of mental chess moves that will bring your solution, project, plan, or idea, to fruition.
THE IMPACT OF SKETCHING
Sunny Brown is a big proponent of doodling and sketching. She's of the opinion that it is an incredibly powerful tool that ultimately makes us more productive. That is why millions of experts sketch: It really does have a profound affect on deep creative processing.
ENGINEERS, PROFESSORS AND MATH TEACHERS HAVE KNOWN THIS FOR YEARS
Engineers, math teachers, professors, and other professionals have known this for years.
And they also understand how effective any non permanent surface is to the overall problem solving process.
There is something about a dry erase surface that allows your ideas to flow freely.
And at the same time you ARE NOT HELD BACK because you're not scared to make a mistake on a whiteboard or in a wipebook whiteboard notebook for example because things can be easily corrected without paper wastage.
But it's time to pass these little nuggets of wisdom on to other folks.
So, got something important on your mind?
NOW you know what to do in order to work it out and make it happen.
Sketch it out like a math pro...
Just sayin'...
