I've been feeling so inspired lately to do creative things! For some reason my creative juices have been flowing more than normal...from coming up with great movie script ideas...to starting a lamp business...as of recently ideas have been endlessly streaming...something that was not happening for me even a few months ago. So I thought, what a great topic to give some advice on how to get YOUR creative juices flowing and how to turn them from just IDEAS to REALITY!!
Why so blocked?
If you feel like you haven't been able to create anything or come up with any new great ideas in a while...there are many factors to why....
✥ Stress ✥ Health issues ✥ Family or Relationship issues ✥ Not understanding the topic your trying to create for ✥ No plan of direction for a specific topic ✥ Financial issues
How to start churning your creative wheels
✥ MUSIC ~ Listen to some calming music or music with an uplifting sound when you feel creatively blocked. It will relax you and allow you to have a clear head for creative thoughts to start flowing. Stress is the number one reason it's hard to create so get as close as you can to your "Happy Place" as possible.
✥ EXPLORE ~ Get out of the house or office and go see something inspiring.. go have a picnic at the park..go see a show you've never seen...get out of your usual scenery and let the world be your inspiration.
✥ BRAINSTORM ~ If your trying to create something...whether it's a dance routine..writing a song...coming up with a new business idea...or trying to come up with a DIY project...just start brainstorming without crossing out any of the bad ideas. The key idea here is brainstorming FREELY to allow as many ideas in at first as possible. If you can't come up with that perfect dance routine...do improv..dance around freely and you may just stumble upon that perfect ending to a routine.
✥ RESEARCH ~ One of the most important things you MUST do when creatively blocked...do some Research!!!
Check out blogs...look at pictures...read articles on interesting topics..the more you expose yourself to the more you have to pull from, when trying to create something of your own.
✥ MAKE IT FUN ~ Have fun with it!! The one biggest reason we all find it hard to be creative or come up with new inventive ideas is because we are being pressured to create. Work is demanding new ideas..school is asking for that amazing essay...our families are wanting success and it's hard to create when there are so many expectations or deadlines from the outside. So enjoy it! Think up ideas for yourself...for fun...and then you never know if that one idea you came up with jokingly with a friend will actually be your best idea yet!
Finally, don't let your creative ideas just stay in creative idea land.....make them your Reality!!!
The best way to make your ideas become reality is to avoid procrastination. The moment that great idea comes into your head...WRITE IT DOWN....SING IT....START RESEARCHING IT!
By starting the idea right away you eliminate the ability to procrastinate...put it off...or even forget about the idea completely.
As a rule to live by in the Vervefelicity lifestyle...be a DOER! Don't be lazy or let life pass you by...take every opportunity you have or every idea and make it a reality if it's what you want. Use your creativity to build something special you can put forth onto the world!
