Have you ever felt stuck and uninspired?
I did. At the beginning of 2015, even though I’ve written several posts about creativity, I found myself in a creative rut. Yep! My creative juices weren’t flowing. It was scary … I was being sucked into the black hole of inertia. I didn’t do a blog post for the entire month of January and in February I only did one. I didn’t send an email to my subscribers for a couple of months.
What happened?
I allowed two confidence zappers (comparing myself to others and shiny objects) to affect my flow.
Here’s the thing, it doesn’t matter how confident you are, how successful you are or how much you are in touch with your inner wisdom, you’re going to falter for one reason or another. However, if your core foundation is intact you’ll bounce back. And I did.
Bouncing back
I took time to read my own blog posts to ignite my creative genius and get unstuck. I spent many hours alone to reconnect to my inner Qi. I used meditation and self-hypnosis to realign my conscious and subconscious desires. I also found an inspirational infographic, 21 ways to unlock your creative genius, with some helpful tips.
These tips are all useful but the three tips listed below spoke to me. They’ve influenced many of the decisions I’ve made recently.
- Don’t wait. Be deliberate but decisive
- Forget perfect. Act more, judge less
- Reset Goals. What do you really want?
Check out the infographic below. Maybe one or more of these tips will speak to you and help you to unlock your creative genius.

All the 21 ways to unlock ones creative genius are great. I especially like the being a copycat and building on classics. Im ardent student of the school of thought that if you do what successful people do, you will invariably become successful yourself.
Thanks for sharing this great piece. Its nothing but classical!
That infographic was great, I pinned it on pinterest!
