Seven Tips On How To Overcome Creative Blocks

CHANGE YOUR ENVIRONMENT
A change of environment can help facilitate creativity. Get a change of scenery such as working in a park or library, or even the terrace of your home. If going out is restricted, try rearranging the workspace, while adding decorations that may help spark inspiration.

TAKE A BREAK
Give yourself some free time. It doesn’t make sense to keep pushing your brain. If something isn’t working, give it a break and do something else. When you’re mentally blocked, try to switch to things that you enjoy doing and keep you in a good mood.

FREE WRITING
Set a timer for 10-15 minutes and write whatever comes to mind without stopping. This can help loosen up your thinking and get your creative juices flowing.

SEEK INSPIRATION
Whether it’s a book, a song, or talking to someone, every creative person needs inspiration from somewhere. Inspiration can come from unexpected sources.

WARM UP EXERCISES
Engage in creative exercises that can get your imagination working. This could be drawing, writing, or even playing a musical instrument.

BE PATIENT
Creativity ebbs and flows. Allow yourself the time to explore and develop ideas without pressure. Understand that not every moment will be filled with inspiration, and that’s perfectly normal. Give yourself permission to take your time, and trust that your creativity will resurface.
