Get inspired by your creativity

from Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear by Elizabeth Gilbert

How to Apply This

  1. If you find yourself thinking that you should experience pain first to produce creative output, reject that thought. Say, “Whatever is bad for me is also bad to my work. Therefore, I’m choosing not to suffer and use creativity as my inspiration instead.”
    Remind yourself of this thought every day.

  2. Surround your workspace with beauty or something that inspires you.
    Creativity works best when you feel most inspired.
