Envisioning Possibilities
Creativity
Creativity involves generating new ideas, solutions, or original and valuable approaches.
Ways to Enhance Creativity
A respondent asked about the reference in my last blog regarding creativity and reducing burnout. Lauren Fiorko, Ph.D., wrote an article in Psychology. Today
My experience running a 7 figure business was mentally exhausting, and I found doing something unrelated to work exhilarating.
*****
One of those things for me was spending time in different natural settings, such as mountains, forests, beaches, or deserts. My daughter and husband sharing a walk on the beach. She’s currently writing ” Walking with Dad”
Nature can inspire creativity and provide a fresh outlook.
Another thought is to Engage in activities you’ve never tried, such as
pottery, woodworking, photography, dance or tubing. Ziplining – a gift from my daughter for my 75th birthday.
My favorite is to
Visit places that are not typical tourist destinations. Experiencing unique environments can spark new ideas. I love going to the pancake breakfasts or spaghetti dinners of other communities. I learned who the NFPs are and how they are fundraising for their love.
Join me July 23 and July 30 for Envisioning Possibilities – evening 6 – 7:30.
