🌱Do you ever feel stuck in life, like everything is on pause and unable to move forward ?🌱
🌸Having creative blocks does not just apply to art, it applies to everything we are creating or not creating in our life .
🌸If we are not creating then the opposite of that is destruction, and that can start with our own thinking
🧠 Our thoughts🧠
When we are over thinking, and allowing the negative chatter to expand in our minds, we often become stuck in life and creating. We start to believe the stories we create in our head, about our own self worth and self doubt, that blocks us from creating. Awareness is key here. To be aware, when are thoughts switch from creation to destruction, and taking action when they do.
When those thoughts do turn dark -
🖤start doing something anything - even if it’s cleaning. What you are doing here is distracting those thoughts and switching your focus to a task. Ultimately quietening those negative thoughts .
😏Focusing on others 😏
😏Social media can be the biggest creative block if not used in a positive way, a way to inspire you not drain you .
🙏🏻Scroll back over your posts -
what are you posting ?
what are you sharing with the world ?
what is this saying about your focus ?
If there are a lot of posts, blaming others, putting others down, having digs then your focus is clearly not where it should be - on yourself .
🖤Instead unfollow anyone or anything that impacts your focus, in a negative way - also be aware why it is impacting you.
ask yourself -
why does that persons post bother me ? as there lies the truth of what is going on inside of you, and what you need to work on.
🙏🏻Start to focus on what does inspire you and bring you joy.
🌱If it’s nature get out there and get immersed in it - follow accounts that love nature too .
🌸Pinterest is a great way of creating inspiration and switching focus. Create a simple board of pins that bring you joy- quotes, colours, style, fonts, flowers, cars , insects, fashion, books … whatever you find inspiring.
🌸Use this board as your go to when you find yourself mindlessly scrolling - start using social media to inspire you not drain you .
🌱Your environment 🌱
This means your whole environment your home, your work, the people around you, what you watch .. every single part of it .
How is it having impact on you?
🙏🏻Do what you can do to take action on any area that is draining you - clear out that. space, that drawer, thar room.
🙌If it’s friends or family that impacting you do what you can do to stop them impacting your energy . I know this one is difficult, however we give our power away when we are constant battling with them or being sucked in by their behaviour. It’s not our job to change others, it is our job to change ourselves .
🙏🏻Distance yourself where you can,
🙏🏻Learn to respond rather than react.
🙏🏻Set boundaries.
🌱Creative blocks aren’t that we can’t create, they are allowing ourselves fo be distracted and impacted by what’s outside of us - instead of focusing on what’s on the inside .
Things to do to push through those blocks -
