Creative thinking plays a big part in how you express yourself. Just like riding a bike or driving a car, creative thinking is a skill that you can improve with careful practice and patience.
● Consume new media that isn't in your usual wheelhouse. Think about the movies, TV shows, and books that you usually gravitate towards. You may be surprised at how many creative thoughts and ideas you can come up with when you experience something that's completely out of your comfort zone.
● Write freely about nothing in particular. Don't restrict yourself to a single topic. Instead, just write about whatever comes into your mind. It's OK if your writing doesn't make a lot of sense — just getting your thoughts out may help you think and feel more creatively.
●Switch up your new menu and prepare a meal or snack that you wouldn't usually eat. Eating new foods may put you in a more creative frame of mind. You can cook something at home or visit a new restaurant.
● Write down a list of creative ideas for an upcoming project. If you're blocked on an idea. give yourself a few minutes to sit and go through all the creative thoughts and ideas running through your mind. As you write down your thoughts, try to come up with more creative ideas. It's OK if your ideas aren't that great — just write down whatever comes to mind.
