7 keys to become more CREATIVE

๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿพ Read thread
Creativity can be learned or improved on, just like happiness.

I believe everybody is naturally creative, you just have to remove the habits and thoughts that are clogging your channels.
1. Remove external noise:

It is hard to get creative ideas when so many voices are jumbled up in your head.

Stop feeding your mind junk - avoid celebrity gossips, circular news, and be selective with the music you listen to.

Remember: garbage in, garbage out.
2. Remove self-doubt:

Be excited about your ideas.

Whether they sound idiotic, feel difficult or look impossible โ€“ it doesnโ€™t f*king matter. Act on them!

Remember: you are not the only one with those ideas - if you donโ€™t materialize them, someone else will.
3. Consume quality contents:

Whatever niche you choose, find 3-5 big players that have successful built a brand around it.

Learn from them without emulating them. Never compare the quality of your work with theirs.

Spend 20% of your time consuming, and 80% creating.
4 Learn a skill:

If you donโ€™t have a pronounced talent, find a hobby or skill that interests you.

Practice passionately everyday, the mastery of it will become your talent.
5 Keep a journal close to you:

Develop the habit of writing down your ideas - it is a way of thanking your brain for coming up with the idea, and the brain in return will generate more ideas.

Inspiration can come anytime - eating, in the shower, even during sex.
6 Quit overthinking:

Eliminate unnecessary and useless thoughts from your psyche โ€”

sports, celebrities, trends, politics, or gender roles debates โ€”

basically anyone or anything that isn't improving you.

Remember: you become that which you constantly think about.
7 Learn to relax:

The more relaxed you are, the more creative you become.

Eliminate stress from your body (exercise) and mind (meditate).

To me creativity is a quality of mind.

Aim to bring that quality into everything you do, find new ways of performing your daily tasks.
2021 is the year you find a medium for self-expression.

If you can't do video, do audio.

If you can't do audio, write.

If you can't write, doodle.

If you can't doodle, start yodeling.

โœ‹๐ŸพNew Year Resolutions Donโ€™t Last

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿพ Build Systems Instead

๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿพ Hereโ€™s how (1/10)
Setting new year resolutions is a creative form of procrastination.

If you are really serious about changing your life, you wonโ€™t wait one extra day.
> For direction, set goals

> For progress, fix habits

> For long-term success, build systems.

A system is a string of processes that makes you effortlessly productive.

It will help you sustain momentum and conserve willpower.

โ€œHow do I discover my passionโ€

One of the most popular questions I get in the DM

๐Ÿ‘‡๐ŸพLetโ€™s get into it
Understand

1. Your passion wonโ€™t appear to you in an epiphany // a ceremonious display.

2. It isnโ€™t ready made, you develop it overtime.

3. You donโ€™t need passion to have direction in life, you need specific knowledge + specific action.
4. You wonโ€™t get paid for your passion, youโ€™ll get paid for your skills, judgement, and capabilities.

5. Passion is not the foundation of your career, it is the outcome of years of devotion + hours of practice
