recently heard one of my fave tiktokers say that if you’re a creative person and you‘re not creating, ur GONNA be depressed… and i was like that’s so true
so recently i’ve been trying to just do little things like write and take pictures and post stuff and really anything (regardless of the quality) to try and expel that energy and i think that’s a good mindset to have

you gotta work on something everyday. even if you don’t think you’ll ever reveal it to the public. even if it’s not in the medium you typically work in (if you paint, do a pencil drawing or write a poem…if you sculpt try making an abstract pastel drawing…if you write essays try writing a song…so on and so forth). even if it’s !not good! that’s fine. even if you work on a little bit each day that’s okay. you’re still stimulating your brain and when the block is over your mind with be warmed up and ready. this is def something i’ve struggled with recently but making an effort to keep myself active creatively has helped a ton.

i want to create more things!
every day i wake up and i just consume consume consume, but then sometimes i end up drawing something or i do music stuff and my day gets a whole lot better! i personally get a lot of fulfillment and fun out of creating things. heck even making up a username for this app felt rewarding, it can be small things too.
so planning said creative activities is the way to go! or at least saying: tomorrow i will do this or that creative activity. i think that's a good idea.

This is prolly a therapy practice or smthn and I don't know it lol BUT i think it's v refreshing and healing for the soul to spend 30 mins/day simply creating something from scratch. It can be anything, like:
- A journal entry
- Rough draft of a story you have rattling in your head
- A silly doodle with no rhyme or reason
- A random collage
- Improv on the piano/guitar/instrument of choice
- Embroidering on an old shirt you're trying to revive
It's easy to get caught up in the gears of life and responsibility; getting into the small habit of creating something new is a good way to stay in touch with yourself and remember that you've got that spark in you <3
