forget making anything good or related to your primary practice and get in touch with the childlike joy of just making for the sake of it

Excellent idea thanks - it’s also part of my issue ☆ ᴛᴏᴏ ᴍᴀɴʏ ᴛʜɪɴɢs ☆ You’ve reminded me of my literal collage and notes approach - pics and phrases / lines from street press etc notes for ideas

Just do it without thinking about an outcome or whether or not it’s good but think about whether or not you are enjoying the process and have fun

Pull a joni mitchell and engage in arts that differ from your primary to inform it at a later time. If you lean more toward visual arts try poetry, song writing, music making, acting/performances for the self, crochet, clay, claymation, videography, sound collection, whistling, discovering new sounds you can make etc. Often when i want to create but i feel tired or uninspired i try to use still life or my surroundings— BUT If thats boring i ask myself a question and let my train of thought ramble -> connecting that rambling to my pen on paper Honestly setting your inner critic to rest and creating things that are imperfect is actually incredible! More often than not letting first drafts be final for a moment allows you to discover what you crave to create.

objectively objectivity doesn't exist so don't get caught up trying to make anything that's good, just keep making and eventually it will become a lot easier to create freely without pressure
