Writer's block is an epidemic that infects the minds of writers everywhere. Spending agonizing hours staring at a computer screen or a blank piece of paper and thinking, "What do I write about?" Here are a few ideas that can help your creative juices start flowing!
1. Take a walk.
Surrounding yourself in nature and observing the beauty around you is a great way to get those creative juices flowing. Fresh air and a change of scenery is a fantastic way to get inspired!
2. Jam out in your car.
We all have that one song we love to sing along to in our car. Blast some of your favorite guilty pleasure songs and that is one sure fire way to get creative!
Exercise is another good way to get your creativity flowing. Running with headphones, lifting weights, or maybe even a kickboxing class are all good stress relievers! Not only will they help you become creative they're also great for your heart and the rest of your well being.
4. Sleep.
Now this tip only works well if you have a large window of time to finish whatever you're writing. I would not advise taking a nap if your paper is due at midnight. However, sleep can help restore some of the chemicals in your brain making critical thinking and creativity a little bit easier.
5. Talk to other people.
Talking to other people is a fantastic way to get inspired. Bouncing ideas back and forth between each other can help you become more informed, inspired and encouraged.
Writing can be difficult at times but you can't stop. The world is a big place and words are powerful. As writers, we should make sure that our words of love and peace are louder than hatred and negativity. Having a global platform is an incredible thing make your words count. Happy writing!
