Boost your creativity

Do things differently, get creative & spice your life up;

1. Take pictures of objects you’d never consider photographing (for no practical reason). How about everyday objects, e.g. forks/cups/plates/cushions/whatever? Experiment with less typical and more artistic shots. This exercise can be more creative than taking shots of the Grand Canyon!
2. Write a few sentences with your non-dominant hand.
3. Take a different route to work. Change it regularly. If you work from home, experiment with taking less familiar routes to your shop/doctor’s office, etc.
4. If it’s safe to do so, e.g. on a meadow without holes, walk with your eyes closed and sharpen your other senses. Additionally, try walking backward to enhance your sense of body awareness/cognitive control.
5. Make an unusual list (it can be silly/impractical), e.g. list cities starting with ‘P’ or your favorite songs from the 80’s.
