Feeling stumped? Got creative block?

Here are 12 proven strategies to help you refill your creative juices.

Now for the controversial bit...

don't really believe in creative block!

I agree with Seth Godin: it's a myth!

He was speaking specifically about writers block, but it I feel it applies to all types of creative block:
"Writer's block is a myth created by people who are afraid to do the work."

You can read more about his thoughts on this here.

Creative block comes from many different places: perfection, Procrastination, choice paralysis, expectations and fear of sharing ideas.

I love Seth’s concept: plumbers don't get plumber's block, and teachers don't get teacher's block.

Why should creativity be any different?

The difference is having a process and doing the work.

The best antidote for creative block is to discover techniques that work to unlock your creative genius.

I hope that these notes help you to do this.
