Don't wait for creativity to come at night

Описание: Do you really want to be a night owl?

I don't. But I used to think my best ideas came at night. So I'd tell myself to wait. As if nighttime had given me the space and inspiration to create. But really, this energy--your creativity can come at any time.

While most of my creative work is done at night, I realized I was trading precious time and energy by staying up late, thus making my mornings less ideal for creation. It was an endless cycle of starting my day with less energy, which set the tone for the rest of my day and my job. This was detrimental because I was actually EXHAUSTED by the time I could create at night. That's not the most exciting place to create from.

So I'm starting to shift my habits. Now I'm winding down an hour before bed with reflective and slow activities. I opt for less noise and distraction in the morning, like less scrolling. I'm slowly replacing that with short walks and physical writing. To breathe. To let my ideas breathe.

And if I don't get to "create" something tangible. That's okay. I did most of the planning and preparation in the morning, which means I can leave the execution for the early evening.

Now, I'm definitely not perfect yet... but I hope my experience can help you live a "better? healthier?" life, which will ultimately let you live a more fulfilling creative life. Good luccccc.

CREATE. I DARE YOU.
