Struggling to stay consistent with your creative goals? Remember this:
🖼find the pockets of time: we all say "I don't have time" wayyy too often, look for the small moments throughout your day that you can sneak in some creative stuff: during your lunch break, in the early mornings, waiting for an appointment, etc.
🖼 limit your distractions: create the kind of space that you can easily focus. Turn off your notifications a quiet corner, use noise cancelling headphones, etc,
3 tips for increasing creativity 🖼
Dedicating creative time- The same way that excersising regularly helps to make your body stronger, regular creativity helps strengthen your creative muscles. Some creative exercises you can incorporate: journaling, mind mapping, doodling, free flowing artistic expression
Fostering a curious mindset- ask questions, challenge assumptions, seek alternative viewpoints. Approach things with a childlike wonder! Curiosity allows you to explore new possibilities and look at familiar things from a fresh angle :)
Embrace diverse experiences- widen your range of activities. Expose yourself to different perspectives, cultures, and/or disciplines. You can do his by reading books, exploring art, traveling, trying new hobbies, and/or learning about topics outside of your comfort zone.
