Pinball

 He's a pinball wizard.  That has to be a twist.  Pete Townshend's lyrics are from the rock opera Tommy.  Symbolism reaching out.


There is eclectic thought process.  It bounces from one thing to another.  It's not as chaotic as you might think.  


It can be as simple as word association.  One thought leads to another.  A specific topic can render specific results.  Some fit some don't.  See what works.


Write thoughts down.  Trying to juggle them all can be daunting.  And if something escapes into the ethos, just wait.  The old adage if it's important it'll come back is often true.  Then again don't worry if it doesn't.  Alternatives come.


Having an outline/framework is a good idea.  The thoughts can mix and match.


Whiteboard helps organized main and tangent points, reminders etc.  


Don't obsess.  Balance head and heart.  


Learn how to rush and how to take your time.  Think under pressure and don't go to sleep either.


Just bouncing ideas.


So, try not to tilt, mind your bumpers and don't forget to use the flippers.
