2. same thing happens to me! it must take a little while for some answers to surface from the subconscious to the conscious.
3. when u think about a question or a problem sometimes Ur mind is blocking out the simplest answer or way around it so by relaxing Ur mind and thinking about other things u r relaxing Ur mind there for thinking more clearly cuz Ur not worrying about trying to find the answer
4. Don't know.
5. You're mind is like a file cabinet. Things are stored until needed. It may take a bit of time, and a walk away for it to come to the surface.
6. because you have to cool down your mind
7. same thing also happens to me. I don't know why that is the way it is. A great question and I wonder if we will ever get the answer to it
8. It's that old "It's on the tip of my tongue (or pen)" adage. Things can lurk and hide in the corners of our brain when we're SEARCHING for them... and then while we're thinking of something ELSE... they'll pop to the fore of our mind. It happens all the time to me with people's names, street names, and timing of events in my past...
