Need a bit of creativity today, feeling rather disappointed about not getting my article published.
- Make lists
- Carry a notebook everywhere (inspiration is all around you)
- Try free writing (Create a character, a short story, a poem)
- Become more worldly.
- Quit beating yourself up. (Yep. You. Stop it.)
- Take breaks (Stare out the window, walk away from the desk, get some fresh air)
- Sing in the shower (As loudly as you can)
- Drink coffee and tea (caffeine does amazing things)
- Know your roots (they are the foundation of who you are)
- Listen to music (Punk. Rock. Country. Pop. Classical)
- Be open (try it, you never know if you make like it)
- Surround yourself with the creative (They can be your mentors)
- Get feedback (Ask why, when, where, how)
- Collaborate (Two minds can be better than one; teamwork)
- Don't give up (You will never get anywhere if you quit)
- Practice, Practice, Practice
- Make mistakes...
- Go somewhere new (take the back road, the long way, the one less traveled)
- Watch foreign films (culture!)
- Count your blessings (each and every one)
- Get lots of rest (What your dreams behold may be the window to creativity)
- Take Risks (go for it...)
- Break the rules
- Do MORE of what makes you happy, LESS of what doesn't
- Don't force it (Step away, the break is something you may need)
- Step away from the computer
- Read a page from the dictionary
- Create a framework
- Stop trying to be someone else's perfect.
- Got and idea write it down!
