33 Ways to Stay Creative…

I came across this picture on pinterest last night….yes, I was “pinning” while watching Private Practice, and even enjoying a glass of wine. I’ve let myself get so consumed lately with the “everyday chores”, (cleaning, cooking, laundry, laundry, and more laundry!) that I’ve been struggling to find my creativity. So reading through this list brightened my spirits!

I think we all can say we go through lulls in life. Our routines take priority over our constant want for adventure and fun and inspiration. The last couple months I’ve struggled with that “lull” in my photography. I’ve watched a few close to me struggle as well. We’re constantly bombarded with social media on facebook and twitter and on and on where peoples negative attitudes can affect every part of us, but most of it we have the power to control. I’ve become quite liberated in choosing to remove those “negative nancys” from either my friends list, or life. It helps. It might sound silly but if you’re not surrounded by people who build you up, you only have one other way to go……

So my challenge to myself (and you) is not only to hop on here and write freely throughout the week, but also to keep this list of creativity inspiration with me….plastered on my computer, bathroom mirror, in my car, or on my notebook. We all can use a little more positive in our lives so choose wisely what you want consuming your heart and mind. And make it beautiful 🙂
