What's on Your Mind?

It all really starts with spending quality time with yourself and/or others and by that I do NOT mean staying plugged into the internet! The first step is to walk away from your computer and immerse yourself in an environment conducive to deep thought. Take a casual walk that gets you away from distractions and stimuli that may control your thinking such as a work environment! As you are strolling along what comes to mind? Likely it is a topic related to the theme of your blogging platform. Take this topic and use it as a basis for your next series of blog entries.

Environmental Stimulus

Watching a bird in flight, a bubbling stream, or even solitude in the midst of nature can all conjure up creative writing ideas. Use these ideas and draw parallels to what you write about. In many cases they can be used as analogies when you are trying to make clear a point with your readers. These simplistic yet deep and meaningful correlations can have a huge impact with people allowing them to make better sense of what you wrote. You may even be creating the 'ah ha' moment for them that might not have been possible otherwise.

Enjoy a Good Conversation

By simply engaging in casual conversations with others opens the door to new perspectives for you while also discovering what is on the mind of others and why. Speaking with people tends to draw any thoughts lingering in the back of your mind more out into the open where you can better manage and make sense of them. Thoughts suppress are less likely to be analyzed, dissected or put to use therefore gathering dust and going to waste!
