By gathering inspiration from creative people. From sourrounding myself with nature, beautiful music, praying and reading!
Amazing!
I up my creativity by telling myself that it is ok to take some time for myself and create. I homeschool my two children and work as a Homeschool Teacher overseeing other families that homeschool. Often I put others needs before my own. That’s why giving myself permission is so important!
I up my creativity by getting outside. I have a favorite trail I hike as often as I can. It rejuvenates and focuses me and frees my mind of all the clutter so I can get back to the things that matter without being so bogged down.
I up my creativity by spending time in nature and writing!
How do you up your creativity?
I’m not creative and not naturally a organized person.
Take note of God in the moment.
What am I’m going to focus on?
Longings of my heart.
Use it as a legacy!
It’s wide open space.
We struggle with journaling.
Write a line or two a day about what God is doing in my life.
“You don’t have to be blooming to be growing” Ruth Chou Simmons Love this quote!!
God grows us day by day. He’s not done with me yet.
Clutter is not making a choice. “Clutter is Indecision” Love this podcast!! Thank you Ruth and Kathy!!
How do I up my creativity? I journal a lot. I keep a journal in my purse and when I hear an idea or one pops in my head I write it down. When I am doing creative writing, I do it early in the morning when no one is up yet and just write in peace. How do I up my creativity with decluttering? I read Kathi Lipp’s books and listen to podcasts and participate in the facebook group and truly try to implement what I learn. How do I up my creativity with giving, random acts of kindness and decorating – one word – PINTEREST! I loved this podcast and just ordered my Gracelaced journal!
Sweet!
