What do some people do it in the shower, in the car and even on the treadmill?


Do you daydream?  

People who do tend to have a strong working memory, according to a new study in the journal Psychological Science.  Those who daydream frequently are better at processing multiple thoughts at one time – and finding solutions.  If you don’t daydream frequently – you might want to work that into your schedule.   Letting your mind wander from time to time can actually help your brain process information, and can serve as a productive mental workout. 
You may be daydreaming without realizing it.  Most people do it in the shower, in the car or during a workout.  Pay attention to where your mind wanders during routine tasks.  That’s when it’s most likely to draw from your working memory to find solutions for the most pressing issues.
