Stop Waiting for Inspiration to Be Creative

As a writer, I have experienced the dreaded writer s block many times. Upon reading many books on creativity and inspiration, I can now successfully conjure up the inspiration to write anything at will. It s not something I can do instantly yet, but pretty darn close. So, without any further ado, let me introduce you to my specific method, before going into a more general synopsis on the process of being creative at will. First, I begin by making a space in which I can be creative without being interrupted. For me, this is in a chair I have adopted as my spot in the living room. It might sound a little neurotic, and Sheldon-esque (for any fans of The Big Bang Theory reading this), but I share a living space with my sister, and in this chair is where it is the most comfortable for me to to do my writing. As I write this, she has company sitting next to her, but, with my headphones in, they are not disrupting me at all. Which leads me to my next point. Right now, I am currently listenin

As an athlete, I know all too well how letting your nerves get the best of you can hinder your ability to do things that are second nature to you. People who go out in front others have devoted countless hours to practice before they ever step out onto the field, stage, or wherever their performance is taking place.

Finding Your Ideal Exercise

We all know that physical exercise does the body good, but did you also know that the longer you sit on the couch, in front of the computer, or even standing in front of a cash register (that s right, standing is almost as bad for you) the worse it is for you? It is no secret that living a sedentary life is good for no one, both physically and mentally. Not only does your body wear down, but so does your mind. According to recent studies your neurological health is also affected by the amount of physical exercise you get on a daily basis, or lack thereof. Yet, even knowing all of that, who wants to work out, really? I for one despise the actual act of going to the gym, the track, my living room, wherever I might be going to do this dreadful thing called working out. But here s the secret: it doesn t have to be this way! Working Out vs. Exercise
