About the 3 rules of creativity and daily creative responsibilities

It’s important to go small steps, this is the first rule of creativity, I get it, but what if you have too many steps to go again and again? Because the second rule of creativity is to repeat and repeat and repeat. Practise makes perfect.

Obviously I learned this in Dance Schools, but not only there. It’s inherent in all creative processes: writing, singing, playing an instrument, drawing, acting – everywhere!

The latest addition to my creative daily routine is writing poems. That could only take 5 minutes, but where do I find 5 minutes for a poem, if I can’t find 7 minutes for morning yoga?

Other creative tasks include morning pages, writing blog posts, playing guitar, researching for my book, vlogs and now poems! (Which should eventually translate into songwriting some day.)

I WANT to do all of this on a daily basis, but on 10 out of 10 days I fail. I can do some of these things on a good day, on a bad day I do morning pages and that’s it. I haven’t ever caught up on all in one day.

Pushing myself makes me feel stressed and stress is the enemy of creative flow.

This is the third rule of creativity: Be relaxed and the muses will find you!

Take a deep breath

Good Morning everyone. Despite the fact that I actually have vacation from my classes, I am still very very busy … and slowly I come to the conclusion, that it might be a bit too much…

It seems now, that there are 3 more weeks before I finally have some time off. But who knows what adventures will come up by that time? 😉 I don’t

And so – to not mess up with my health completely – I try to take some breaks inbetween, wandering through the greenness outside, trying to feel connected with the world around me.

But what I know at least is that even if I there might be a lot coming up after these 3 weeks, it’ll be the kind of activities, that I love doing. So I am definitely looking forward to it.

But now, perseverance is the virtue of the day.
What is your secret to keep with the pace?
