As a blogger, I consistently need to create. From shooting content, brainstorming blog posts, and figuring out unique ways to engage my audience, there is a constant need to create and I love it. Let’s just say, I would NOT do well with any career that requires routine or black and white thinking.
While being passionate about my blog and writing, I’m still human and sometimes feel uninspired. I’ll get writers block and generally feel a lack of creativity and inspiration. Here are some things I do to get my creative juices flowing again:
Relax
I find that when I’m stressed or overwhelmed I feel less creative. I’m most likely worrying about something which doesn’t put me in the right mindset to create the content I want to put out for my audience. A bath, glass of rosé and some trash TV (AKA the Kardashians) for the night typically does the trick!
Workout
When I’m feeling a creative block throughout the day (typically happens midday) I’ll go for a 30 minute – 1 hour run. During this time, I’ll sometimes (not always) get the idea for that Instagram caption, blog post or newsletter topic.
Travel
While I’m always up for travel, (under any circumstances – inspired or uninspired) travel gets my creative juices back into a good flow, especially if I’m really in a rut. A week in Europe, or anywhere for that matter, gives me all the inspiration I need to get back into my groove.
We all can feel uninspired at times. What are some things you do to feel inspired in your life? Share with me!
