Lifetime story

That’s because we are all different and are inspired by different things. You need to learn what works for you and one of the best ways to do this, is to think about what you were doing the last few times you felt inspired. Look for any common factors and incorporate these the next time you need some inspirational ideas or answers. Here are just a tiny number of situations, which trigger creative inspiration:

Some people find inspiration in books. Some find inspiration in music. Some people are inspired when surrounded by nature. Some people grab a pad and some colouring pencils and start doodling. Some people become inspired to create, when an internal or external deadline approaches. This one is really interesting, because it shows how creative inspiration can indeed be self driven. Some find inspiration through affirmations or positive self-talk. Some find inspiration comes when they are doing some type of physical activity. For me, it’s walking that works best. Some find inspiration in the design of an everyday item. (More on that in a moment.) And others find all of the above work to a lesser or greater degree.
