Over the years I have doodled at many meetings in educational institutions.
It is a compulsion that I can hardly avoid.
Doodling is a way of aiding concentration and it soothes any tension that sometimes arises during a discussion.
The spontaneous action of doodling not only helps me listen and take in what is being said but it also assists my own involvement in discussion.
It is therefore important that I do not take the doodle too seriously as to its quality.
