Real talk - Nourishment

April 02, 2018 • Leave a Comment

Real talk - creativity doesn’t bloom unless it’s nurtured. I wish I could say everyday when I roll out of bed and my feet touch the floor, I’m a ray of sunshine flowing with creativity but that ain’t the case.

Everyday we’re all presented with new challenges and opportunities. I’d love to say our talents determine the quality of our daily lives but unfortunately most of the time it’s our attitude that becomes the deciding factor. Your mood is going to be the catalyst that effects your creativity.

“Motivation is the fuel, necessary to keep the human engine running.” - Zig Ziglar

Listen, no one is perfect! You’re gonna have times when your mood and creativity are in the dumps but that’s ok! You have the power to change your mood and kickstart your creativity.

First, look at your surroundings. Are you creating an environment where your creativity can bloom? Are you surrounding yourself with positive people and motivation?

Second, are you healthy inside and out? Are you quick with a correction if someone compliments you? Are you staying up late and eating junk all the time. Listen, I’m not a fitness guru or a motivational speaker but we all have to take care of ourselves and sometimes need a splash of cold water to snap us back to reality.

If you’re not feeling great or feel like your creativity is non-existent, you do have the power to change this. You just have to be willing to put in the work, one small step at a time.

I’m sure you’ve heard “don’t make mountains out of molehills” when it comes to how you view the problems in your life. Whether you truly have a mountain or just a molehill, take that first step.

Create the best environment for yourself, even if it’s just some flowers to brighten your space. Start talking positively to yourself and watch your thoughts - for both positive and negative thoughts. Don’t allow negativity the resources to grow, instead put effort daily into creating a positive environment and you’ll soon begin to see noticeable changes. When you can start making time to look for beauty and excitement every day, that’s when you’re going to start turning your life around and that’s when your creativity is going to bloom - when it’s carefully and lovingly nourished.

Thanks for listening to my pep talk

trust me I needed it too! Have a great day!
