Fall Back Into Creativity: Intro and Day 1
Whether you are struggling with a creative block or gearing up to work on a big project; this month’s set of prompts are designed to get you going.
It doesn’t matter if you are a writer, painter, photographer, or musician. No matter what your method of expressing creativity, take each prompt and express yourself. As a writer, you can choose to respond to the prompts as yourself or look through the eyes of a character you have created.
No matter what, make sure to have some fun with it!

Creativity Sundays: That Good Morning Creativity
For the next week, you should keep a notebook, sketchbook, or journal by your bed. As soon as you wake up in the morning you should put something in it. Spend at least five minutes writing or sketching your thoughts. The more time you can spend the better.
Do your best to let your inner editor sleep and allow your creativity to flow freely.
Don’t get hung up on working on any specific project. Do what comes to your mind in that particular moment. Clear your mind onto the page if necessary.
Remember not to worry about edits. This is about quantity, not quality. If you get something really good going still continue to let you inner editor chill until you pursue it.
At the end of the week look back and think about how this exercise has helped your creativity. Is it something that you want to continue doing?

Creativity Sundays – Make time!
Do you make time to be creative?
Often times we get caught up in our lives. We can begin to run on auto-pilot. This can lead to not having enough time to really relax and get creative.
Make time each week to sit and focus on your creativity. You want to be able to sustain the habit so make sure you pick a time that will work long term. Or you could switch it up each week given changes in your schedule. Just make sure that you are giving an hour or more to your creativity.
The other key is to not spend this time forcing yourself to work on anything specific. This should be a time where you can really relax and not worry about deadlines or restrictions. This is time to simply be the time where you express yourself freely.
Try it out and notice how your creativity and overall life changes.
