Hello Steemians!
Creativity is one of the most valuable skills a human being can develop. Particularly, I see creativity as a lion inside us, that sometimes is asleep and sometimes awake becoming a ferocious hunter, making everything vibrate in its path, awakening interests in others until conquering new worlds.
Therefore, the development of creativity is a cognitive process that is awakening as we manage to activate the imagination. But what do we do if we stagnate and it does not flow naturally?
Next I will share with you 5 tips that I have used to activate creativity:
Draw: Drawing or free scribbling allows you to relax, let the thought flow and graphically shape the words and sensations. Use colors, shapes and additional materials. Similar to when you were a child and your teacher asked you to make a free drawing, using only your imagination. This activity according to experts in psychology helps to develop concentration.
Inspire yourself in others: Authenticity and originality are precepts that lead us to achieve the closest definition of ourselves. However, having role models of people who inspire you can develop new ideas in you. I do not mean with this, that you are going to do plagiarism, because that would be unethical. Simply, observe other ideas that you like and go with your style, to create yours. For example, this happens a lot in the musical and artistic field.
Breathe: conscious breathing is essential to activate the oxygenation of the brain. Remember, practicing constantly (10 to 15 minutes each day) will help to awaken your creativity, decreases anxiety and stabilizes the mind producing greater well-being throughout your body. One of the techniques I use particularly with my students and clients is Mindfulness.
Stop: if you feel that nothing inspires you, nothing motivates you, you enter like a labyrinth. Well, get up from the chair, stretch, walk, take a walk or have a coffee with a friend. These simple activities will help you clear your mind and soon you will regain your creativity.
Read: interest in reading will allow you to know new worlds. This habit will immerse you in great adventures and activate new ways of thinking and increase your imagination. Creativity is just a matter of connecting things. I say goodbye, quoting one of the most creative men in the world:
“When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel somewhat guilty, because in reality they did not, they just saw something”. Steve Jobs
And you, how do you wake up your creativity? If you wish you can also share your own tips in this space. I hope these tips have been useful ;)
Until a next post,
Hugs!
