Here’s a tip if you’re feeling stuck, burnt out, just are having a good ole mid-week existential crisis…

First, creativity ebbs and flows. Second, I’m gonna go ahead and make the bold claim that purpose also ebbs and flows.

It’s unrealistic to think you’re going to wake up, smash a cuppa Joe, and ride your unicorn-of-purpose into each day with pure glee.

Life happens, routines get sticky, and the motivation and excitement that accompany purpose start to call in sick, a lot.

So, here’s my tip for un-stucking yourself.

When you feel rudderless, or some version of murky, disrupt your programming. For a bit, take your to-do’s off the big scary pedestal you’ve place them on, create some space to be weird and not care what anyone thinks, and inspire yourself to enjoy a wee bit of chaos. In that disrupting, you’ll rediscover something like direction or purpose, again.

Your purpose is always within you, in your work and in your life, sometimes it just takes a bit of creativity to stir yourself into clarity and purposeful action.

Last thing I’ll say… Creativity doesn’t have to be a scary thing where you challenge yourself to reinvent the wheel or create a new medium of communication. Just cook. Dance like a weirdo. I know you have some funky moves.

If you can't tell, I'm a fan of less is more design 🙃😋
