Everyone needs a creative outlet.

For life without creativity is a slow death.

Here are 9 ways to be more creative every day

//Thread//
Quick PSA:

Threads are a pain in the ass to write but they are valuable so I plan to do more of them.

I don't ask for a penny in return but could you do me a solid and hit that RT ☝?

Thank you.

Let's start with Tip # 1....
1) Document everything

Creators see life as a series of experiments.

But if you're not taking notes of your experiments, how will you learn?

Record your process, learn what works and what didn't work

Rinse and repeat
2) Being creative isn't A job

You're not restricted by a job title.

If you know how to be creative, you can change jobs every day.

Eg I have this Twitter account. Some of my creative "jobs" inc:
> Making memes
> Writing tweets
> Finding new ideas
> Writing emails
etc
3) Living creatively is THE dream job

My friend @creation247 started as a teacher and now he's a full time entrepreneur.

He creates art and uses his creative skills to teach others online and support his family in the process.

Being creative can be your dream job if you want
4) Find freedom in limitations

All great creations and inventions were born from limitations.

I learned this powerful lesson from director Robert Rodriguez.

In a "normal" world, limitations restrict you.

In a creative world, limitations free you because...
they force you to think outside the box and discover new ideas.

This is the beauty of having a creative mind.

It primes you to think like a problem solver.

Practice daily and you'll be known as the guy who solves problems.

Impossible to fail when you do this.
5) Never abandon your child-like curiosity

When I look at my favourite creators like Martin Scorcese and Jerry Seinfeld, I see a child-like curiosity that keeps them young.

Regardless of their monumental successes

They keep learning

They keep creating

Just like kids.
6) You need discipline

Contrary to popular belief, being creative isn't about waiting for "inspiration".

The inspiration shows up AFTER you start creating

My best writing always takes place after I've written a few hundred words of garbage.

If you want to create, do it daily.
Speaking of Creating daily, have you checked out Create 24/7?

If you want to get paid for your creations, this is the best investment you can make

7) Follow your Gut

It's hard to explain your gut to people because it's just a feeling.

But your gut is the one thing that will make your work stand out from other creators.

It's your USP.

Refine it daily by creating daily

Trust it and it will take you far.

That's it.

But the plan you've likely been given is a plan to keep you trapped in hell.

Read this *thread* to learn from my mistakes (I'm twice your age)

1) College is not mandatory

I know everyone around you makes it seem like it's mandatory but it's not.

Especially if your #1 goal is to make money.

Even if you STILL want to go to college..

Take a year off to work or travel

Get some LIFE EXPERIENCE

then go to college.
2) World travel is the best education you never had

When I was a kid I had no idea you could possible to travel the world long term.

I thought my path was College ▶9-5▶5 years on the job▶2 week vacation▶Retirement at 65

Reading the 4-hour workweek changed that path for me

💰5 MONEY LESSONS I LEARNED FROM WORKING IN PERSONAL AND CORPORATE BANKRUPTCY 💰

Since money is on everyone's mind today, today's thread will be about money.

These lessons won't make you rich but they will keep you from getting broke.

//THREAD//

👇👇👇
1. Get your cashflow in order

#1 cause of bankruptcy that I saw was poor cashflow management.

Cash is the blood of your business.

If it's not flowing and powering your business, you will bleed out and end up having all your assets repossessed by your creditors.
2. Hire a good accountant

I handled a lot of businesses that racked up six figure debts with the tax office.

They spent years dodging the tax man which could have all been avoided had they hired a good accountant from the beginning.

A good accountant helps you keep your money.

this thread outlines 9 specific science-based systems you need to put in place to achieve your goal (to be happy)

Thank you.

Now let's implement your happiness systems...
How many times have you heard that "happiness is a state of mind"?

While that sounds nice, it's not useful.

If happiness was as simple as "thinking more positive"

we'd all be sitting around all day thinking rather than living.

The truth is happiness is a formula..

Ask any marketer what is the FIRST THING they do BEFORE they pour their time and energy into...

...building a product
...crafting an offer
...doing outreach

???

RESEARCH.

But HOW do you research?

It's not as simple as just "read some reviews and forums"..
If it was that simple, we'd all have bucket loads of profitable ideas.

Research is boring and hard af because there is SO MUCH info on the internet.

What if you had a methodical process to extract the one profitable idea from thousands of data points?

It'd be like having...
a map to a huge pile of gold.

That's exactly what @JoshuaLisec's new system is.

It’s your map, your bucket, and your shovel — plus your directions for where to dig.

If you want a templatized process for finding the next profitable idea
