Let’s pose an example where you might experience an AHA moment. You have a website and are writing a monthly blog. Consistently, you have about 100 clicks a month. You decide to shake things up a bit with a new topic or by adding graphics instead of just text. The next month, your readership jumps to 500. AHA, you think to yourself, let me do more of that.
According to the Harvard Business Review, those brilliant “AHA!” moments that reshape our thinking tend to happen unexpectedly. They occur when our minds are quiet and engaged in unrelated activities, not when we’re actively searching for them. Creating an atmosphere of silence and solitude can enhance the chances of experiencing these transformative insights.
Abraham Maslow, a humanistic psychologist, delved into peak experiences, describing them as invaluable and life-changing revelations. According to him, these moments hold intrinsic value, making life truly worthwhile due to their occasional occurrence.
