Doing Creativity

I wanted to write about creativity resources – books, websites, newsletters. There are a lot of great resources out there. But I couldn’t get excited about that. I kept putting it off. I was resisting the idea and I struggled with why.

Then I figured it out. For me, the creativity feeling is less about the researching and reading and more about the doing…and the creating.

So, if you are looking for inspiration, do something that inspires you. Take a risk. Try something new. Make a cake from scratch or jazz up a box cake. Buy a wooden chair from Goodwill and paint it. Make a new recipe and serve it by candlelight. Print some of your pictures and hang them in a hallway. Create something that makes you smile. And then do it again…and again…and again.
