writing continuously without a break for atleast 1hr is a way of becoming creative

[UmeshKumar-webe]

1)Write journaling
2)Walking
3)Spend time with nature
4)Morning shower

[shaolinpaul]

Being more intentional with my thoughts daily - walking, in the shower, waking up, becoming more aware of my thoughts, and changing them to be more intentional with my creative ideas

[swervevfx]

the one that that worked for me when it comes to creativity is
JUST GET STARTED: just start what you are working on, take it one step at a time, once u are done with that bit take a moment, zone out for a bit while thinking about ur next move, take a look at it and see the different possibilities you can go about the next step and keep that flow going until you are done
BONUS: another thing i do is listen to retro synthwave type beats with no lyrics, those types of music that play in movies when the character is in a deep work session i.e Tony Stark, these put your brain in a state of awareness

Thanks Jim!
When I walk in the mornings I try not to think. That way I notice birds, houses, flora, sounds, clouds, the light - and anything else sensory.
Very grateful for these provocations!

[JessicadeHaas-unxh]

Thank you, this was really valuable. I want to walk more often and keep a notebook next to my bed, so I can write about my dreams immediately.

I could when I first wake up start drawing everything that went to my head. Then take a shower and start imaginating things. I could also get out and walk seeing the outsides and trying to view it with other perspectives. Before sleeping setting a question for a creativity problem and trying to dream with designs to then draw them in the morning.

[debraleong]

Thank you!. I'll try journaling in the morning, instead of picking up my phone. That's an unhealthy habit I have that I wish to change. Thanks!

[mastermindachiever]

Not obsessing over my limitations. I want to obsess over what I want to be to do and to have.
Fall asleep thinking feeling and seeing what I want to happen
Wake up plan and see my day before I get up. 👍

[Manas-cowl]

I was doing a hundred day discipline where I cut down most of social media, cafe, and all fast food and games.

That period is about to end (91 days, which was successful). So I want to try out a new 100 days relaxing myself, cutting down almost all the negativities/anxieties I harbor, enjoying life, and just slowly loosen myself. The next 100 days I want to go creative mode, get in that theta wave, let go of all worries and free me of all the drudge I wasn’t able to get rid of the past 100 days.

I realized that I was a “problem-solving” oriented guy. I work best when there’s a specific mission and objective answers. Which sort of shook me because my goal was always of a creative type.

So the next hundred days I’m going to let all that analytic “destroy the problem” side of me go, and just relax, chill, do not worry too much, and allow my naturally creative side to take root. Let what is, is, give my soul some well needed rest, take walks, and retake up that dream log.

And most of all, I will stop judging my artworks. I’m just gonna regress back to my childhood when it comes to making stuff up and just doing things for it’s own sake.

This should be fun. Thank you for the inspiration.

I learn that taking a stone on hand could let me stay in the state Alpha, sometime while I am very late sleep my mind will turn very fast while I am trying to sleep. It can be word and also can be visualization.

I also like one advice from you that's ask myself an important question before I asleep.

Ask question than could get the answer this always be the reminder to me from today,

Jim Kwik thanks so much and you give me so much inspiration for me to achieve my goal become a great teacher in Malaysia 💙💙💙

[coblue]

Thank you! Great confirmation about journaling. Writing gratitude journal first thing in the morning helps me to set positive intentions for the day as well as to transform negative subconscious thoughts that come up in my dreams.
I will try asking positive, constructive questions before going to sleep for better dream experiences and avoiding smartphone for the first hour of the day to output ideas instead of inputting ideas. Also, take more walks & showers!

[joshuasvenson]

Definitely one about setting an intention or kind of an obsession before going to sleep whether to solve a problem or be more creative in other aspect of life.

[autumapple]

I am going to start setting intentions before bed, thanks friend!🙏🏼😊🙏🏼

[azharmuhammedu]

Thank you for coming up with such informative videos. I have always thought that I wasn't given the "gift" of creativity but after watching this video it has changed.
I want to try out to set the intention to be creative in my dreams 💪🏾

[ethanrittenhouse]

IVE BEEN LOOKING ALL OVER FOR A VIDEO LIKE THIS. Wow this is crazy. Especially with the thing about Alpha waves being increased with television consumption.

[jameswainaina]

I discovered that most of the answers i have had to difficult questions come when I am not actually 'thinking' ! That points to the fact that calmness or rather the state of being 'present' is the most creative state for a human being.

[jeanninechrzanowski]

Love your tips!! Setting an intention to dream is the one take away I'll use today.

[patty]

Thank you for your guidance and methods for sharing the information. I appreciate your energy.

[gabrielandrick]

Getting into the flow state more often.
