One of my favorite things:

\n

Pick a song I like, press play, and go for a walk.

\n

While listening to the song, pick another song that comes to mind and listen to it next.

\n

Repeat.

\n

Add each song to a playlist.

\n

By the end of the walk I’ve got a new playlist filled with songs I like that flow beautifully.
