Creative Constipation vs Brain to Paper

Brain Freeze, Writers Block, Creative Constipation - we all get times when we just can't get the ideas from brain to paper.

It's all perfectly normal.

But how do we get past these situations without becoming demotivated and getting caught in a circle of never-ending negativity and being unproductive?

Well, first, you have to give yourself a break. You're not some massive failure; you probably just have too much on your mind and need to relax and get that in order first. If you're in the UK, the weather is finally getting warm enough to go outside and have a walk. Go grab some fresh air and clear out the cobwebs. It'll do you the world of good. Trust me.

Another way to stop all of the above is to stop leaving things to the last minute. Unless you're one of these lucky people who thrives under pressure, leaving your tasks to the last minute will not make it any easier for you. It needs to be done, so get it out of the way now.

My final piece of advice, especially when it comes to writing content, is to write down all the ideas you have throughout the day. If you have a lightbulb moment, then WRITE IT DOWN! You will not remember it, however good the idea, and you'll be kicking yourself later when you need ideas and you need them quickly! 

Until next time,
