Challenge Yourself – Self-Care Creativity – November 2016 Creativity Challenge

Everything isn’t for everybody.

Let’s start there.

There are a number of challenges that go around the internet. Prompts are all over the place if you take a few moments to look. However, that doesn’t mean that any of them are right for you. Even NaNoWriMo isn’t for every novelist. Daily writing can be difficult. Word counts can be hard to reach. Living your everyday life may make it difficult to work on your art every day.

But how do you get good at something if you don’t work at it?

You have to find a way to create every day.

If limits aren’t your thing, don’t focus on them.

Simply be creative.

Heck, we are a day late starting this challenge but we are still going to do it!

Creativity is a form of self-care. It can feed your soul.

Our challenge to you this month is to practice daily self-care through exercising your creativity. Feed your creative soul and watch the positive effects on other areas of your life.
