We all derive creativity from a variety of sources. There is no right or wrong way to stimulate the creative process--different scenarios are right for different individuals. A list of things that enable my creativity:
-Good music, particularly country. The amazing songs of Miranda Lambert have been on rotation a lot lately. Adele and Kelly Clarkson have also been on there when I need some melancholy.
-Books. Unless a book is truly bad, it can almost always inspire me to think about something from another perspective, to turn my pre-conceived notions on their ears.
-Television shows--some more than others, of course. Movies usually work by the same token. A nice bit of comedy or a nice love story always puts my mind in a good place.
-Sunshine. What's funny about this one is that I tend to be creative at nighttime, when the sun has been replaced by the moon. Still, I can't imagine myself being creative in a place where the sun rarely shows itself; nice weather puts me in a good mood.
-Friends. Really good friends only add to our creativity. They help us to believe in ourselves when we get discouraged. I am thankful for each and every one of you.
What are some things that inspire you to be more creative?
