1. Use a neck strap or wrist strap, and always have your camera with you. The weight of the camera will remind you to make photos.

2. Walk 25% slower than you normally do. Treat photography as walking mediation -- let the photo opportunities come to you.

3. Treat photography like playing. Don't take your photography too seriously. Have fun. Smile, and explore the streets with zest and enthusiasm.
