Getting in the creative flow

Getting in the creative flow




We all have a creative side and some days it can be a challenge. I find music helps me get inspired and head banging which helps you to feel good within. I'm sure we have these days where we feel unmotivated to create anything. Never the most easiest experience but it can happen to any musicians, bloggers, youtubers you name it! It can happen to you! So, how do we get back into the flow you ask? Well, the way I have always done it is listening to music and watch other youtubers or read blogs or books that get you motivated. and inspired. Maybe watch a music video on youtube? If you are a musician I understand it not easy as I been there before in my past history in music. 
Get a pen and paper out start just writing even if it a journal. Possibly go out in nature spend time in sun light get vitamin D at the same time. I know winter is our crap time to be outside but I think head banging to good old guns n roses is great! I did do a podcast about this subject click blow to listen.

We all struggle with being in a rut and it can be a battle. 

Signs to look out for

You don't have the energy 
Oftentimes, you know what you need to do in order to be happier and more fulfilled., but you just don't the energy. You may know that you need to exercise in order to have energy. That's why I walk in nature regularly if possible. There are times where you don't have energy so I use energy drinks. The truth is you adopt positive habits that will give you the energy, instead of waiting for energy to appear. 

You're not excited for the day 
When it is emotional rut you either feeling down or got no mojo to do anything, but you seem to struggle to get up out of bed or couch and take that action. You feel you have nothing to look forward to. Winter is the common time with this to happen. You must interrupt these damaging patterns before they steal your goals. 

You stay in your comfort zone 
This is not a good way to stay stuck in a rut. If you don't grow you are pretty much fucked.

You are not getting ahead 
This is common when you're in a financial rut: You spend all your time working, but you make just enough to get by, not get ahead. It's time set new goals and discover how you can get out of a rut and ahead. 

Identify what is making you be in a rut
To identify why you're stuck in a rut with life, think about how your decisions play a roll in this and into a positive rather than a negative one. 

  1. Get out of denial 
  2. uncover the real reason 
  3. Turn the shoulds into musts 
  4. Create healthy habits 
  5. Take on a challenge 
  6. Get support - if you need support talk to me and follow me on YouTube or podcasts 
Affirmation to use.

 Truths to inner peace  We all seek inner peace: the calm, clarity, and contentment that comes from falling into a harmonious balance with our internal self. But despite how essential inner peace is in finding true happiness, many of us don’t know where to start on this journey of personal growth and transformation. In today’s hectic and ever-changing world, inner peace may seem like a foreign concept, but cultivating it doesn't require huge life changes like moving to Bali. Rather, finding peace within ourselves is more of an individual journey to be embraced and explored. Overview The 8 universal truths for inner peace include: Our imagination often causes us more suffering than reality does; We are not free if we cannot control ourselves; Everyone must choose one of two pains: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret; when we really don’t need to. No matter how anxious we may be, it won't change the course of events that are bound to happen; we got to change how  W...

Unlocking your full potential: A guide to self-improvement

Unlock your full potential: self improvement  Personal development is any activity that makes you a better person. Its goal is to give you more confidence and make you a happier, more satisfied individual. It concerns itself with improving awareness, honing talents, developing emotional intelligence and building your appreciation of yourself and all of your attributes. As with any significant undertaking, but especially one that can be as life-changing as personal development, it’s worth taking a deep look at why it is undertaken, or what your motivation should be before taking it on.  Motivation is the fuel that will keep you going as you discover and create the best version of yourself.

Stories help with that. An engaging story sticks with you in a way that a research finding often can’t.
