A Simple Thing That Helps You To Be Creative

Every once in a while when creating your website content, like all writers, you will have writers block. You hit a roadblock in the creative process. What should you do?

Many of us will struggle to force an idea to come to us. This is normal and sometimes it works, but most times it doesn't or it only helps a little bit. What should you do?

Why is your mind stuck in neutral? It is worse than being in your car in heavy traffic. At least in traffic you do move forward a bit, albeit slow. So again, what should you do?

A SIMPLE THING

When I get any kind of blockage of creativity I do one of two things. If it is not pouring rain or in the middle of a snowstorm, I go outside day or night and lean up or sit down against a tree.

Yes I know that a tree may not feel soft and comfortable but it is alive. You are making a physical connection to another living thing that is bigger than you, maybe even older.

When you think of that tree as a life force that has experienced time and the energy of the environment more than you ever could, it makes me amazed at how that must be like.

I start thinking what it would be like if I could stay in one place all of my life, giving shade to humans and a resting and playful place for birds, squirrels and other animals.

When you think of yourself as a tree and let your imagination run wild, it frees up your creativity blockage. NOTE: Always wear a hat, unless you don't mind a bird using you for target practice.

If the weather or timing doesn't allow me to go outside, I go up on YouTube and find videos of Virtual Hiking Mountain Forest Scenery. No words spoken, only the sounds of nature.

The feeling, smell, sight and sounds of nature will always help me to clear that blockage of creativity. What about you? What do you do to get those creative juices flowing? Comment below.
