About Creativity

Read a post by Leo Babauta on creativity where he was sharing his "creativity tips". Here are some I liked...

• Play
• Look for inspiration all around you, in the smallest places
• Start small
• Just get it out, no matter how crappy that first draft
• Don’t try for perfect-Just get it out there
• Constantly make it better
• Ignore the naysayers-But let criticism help you grow
• Teach and you’ll learn
• Shake things up, see things in new ways
• Write all ideas down immediately
• Turn your work into play
• Play with kids
• Get out
• Read wildly different things
• Get lots of rest-Overwork kills creativity
• Don’t force it-Relax, play, it will start to flow
• Allow your mind to wander-Allow distractions, when you’re looking for inspiration
• Don’t be afraid to be stupid and silly
• Small ideas are good-You don’t need to change the world — just change one thing
• When something is killing your creativity, kill it
• Stop reading creativity advice, clear away everything, and just create
• Most of all, have fun

I will add "never stop learning" and "be amazed". There are no such thing as "the right time" - right time is now.

Have a happy and healthy Friday:)
