For some, creativity is the mother tongue. For others, creativity as a second language: takes a little practice and a lot of encouragement.
We all can be creative; difference is the way that we choose to access it or express creativity. Just like other things, your creativity muscles to be trained.
Silence is Golden
Take a break after a long activity in silence, rest, or meditate. Do not feel guilty for relaxing. Nap, listening to music, reading books, or watching movies could be more beneficial than forcing yourself to continue to work without achieving anything.
Focus
Some of the biggest ideas emerge when things around us seen in a different perspective. The more you see and hear, the more ideas we can produce … Pay attention to the world around you so that you can develop an uncanny ability to see the wonders of the little things and trivial.
Always be curious
Wherever you are, whether it is around the world or down the street, open yourself to new experiences. Live your life filled with curiosity and encourage your child to have the same attitude, although sometimes very annoying. If you feel tired or do not know the answer, encourage your child to find out for yourself.
Wisdom is not common
Some of the most creative ideas emerge when we put aside assumptions. Question the ideas that have been generally accepted and challenge your prejudices to spend time with people who have different experiences and life choices from you.
Minor changes
Make a list of small things that you do in the same way from day to day. Then do one small change in your routine so that you get a new perspective. For example, to change the route to the office, you’ll probably find a quicker route or which offer a more beautiful scenery, or you may find a new place to buy a glass of cappucino!
Read, read and read
Try reading the genre, aka the new variant reading, reread children’s books and subscribe to your favorite blog or newsletter pleasant. Read about creative people and about creativity. And if your eyes are tired after a day of staring at the computer, switch to audio.
Generate an idea
Create an idea bank: collect and store advertising ideas or interesting, quotes, articles, cartoons, design in a coffee can or shoe box. Shake the container and take two or more things at random and see if it triggers you to generate new ideas.
