Three ways to be more creative!
Here are three quick ways to become a lot more creative in all areas of your life.
1: Do something physical.
Research has shown that physical exercise helps to force you out of left-brain dominant thinking and instead adopt a more creative mindset.
Exercise also increases blood flow and oxygen to the brain, which sharpens mental clarity.
2: Watch a TED talk or listen to a podcast.
Tuning in to a powerful TED talk or listening to an interview with someone fascinating is a great way to shift your perspective, quickly and without a lot of effort.
There are so many inspiring people out there, and learning from someone who is out there truly innovating. In their field, it is a great way to wake up your creativity.
3: Generate more ideas than you think you need.
THIS is the single most common thread among super creative thinkers. People who are able to generate a lot of ideas (good and not-so-good) are much more likely to have a couple of brilliant ideas hidden in the mix than those who only come up with a couple of ideas, to begin with.
Block out time for free writing and come up with as many ideas around a problem as your brain can generate, even if they seem silly.
