Are you finding yourself stuck and in a rather uncreative mode right now? Have no fear Taylor is here! We all would love creativity to come automatically but sometimes it just doesn’t. Here is a list of 7 ways that really get my creativity going and I hope it gets your creativity going as well! This list is in no particular order of importance, I use them all equally.
Make sure to have a pad of paper around when creativity hits you, you will want to record some of those priceless thoughts!
- Listening to a nice piece of music. Perhaps a motivational piece that has no words or even your favorite metal band, whatever works for you
- Drink caffeine. Sometimes you need it to get those creative juices flowing. Pour yourself your favorite cup of jo or grab an energy drink
- Getting out of your house for a quick walk or drive. This works because it gives you a new perspective by being in a new surrounding
- Read something. Just as you are doing now. Perhaps try reading something pertaining to a specific subject you are thinking about. Pick up a new book or magazine or even listen to a podcast or audio book! Or most recommended, go to my blog
- Spend some time with your family or friends. Have some good conversations with them. Ask them about what they think about a certain subject and it may inspire you and provide you with a different angle you never even thought about!
- Take a break. If you find yourself just straight up dry of fresh thoughts try taking a break. Your creativity will not come if you try to force it.
- Be patient. Creativity is like laying an egg, sometimes you have to sit on it before it hatches! When creativity comes knocking on its shell you will know what to do.
