Don’t Hold Back Your Creativity
Six unconventional ways to boost creativity.
The biggest struggle a writer can face is having the time to write, wanting to write, but not having any inspiration or creative drive. However, creativity is needed far beyond writing. You need it in any kind of artistic activity, but also daily life.

Creativity is a kind of mindset and lifestyle that everyone can adopt and master.
I want to share six unconventional methods that help boost creativity drastically.

Salvador Dali tried to use his subconscious mind. The subconscious mind is a powerful tool to become creative. But we have to learn not to oppress it and to purposefully engage our subconscious mind to yield the best results.
