Putting anything novel from your mind into the world is a success no matter what, it can’t be taken from you. If you’ve got ideas but feel like they aren’t translating when you go to create, keep doing it even if you think it’s not good or what you envisioned. From the stuff you don’t like, there might be something interesting to latch onto you can take in a new direction

Ideas want to be brought to life, and if you don't, someone else will! But also don't feel bad if someone already did the thing you wanted to do, you still have a neat perspective you can add.

if you’re ever stuck, just write anything. If the lines don’t make sense together, that’s great. If it sounds nothing like what you’d normally write, great! If it’s not very good, great. just see where your fingers fall on the guitar or piano, or where your wandering mind takes the melody and lyrics and finish whatever crap you’ve just come up with. Finish it in 20 minutes knowing you might not show it to anyone.
Sometimes you might end up finding a cool melody, lines or chord sequence that you fuck with, sometimes you won’t. But working from something’s better than nothing. You could sample it, repurpose it, trash it but you’ve got something tangible in front of you.

i dont know if this will be helpful. Or confusing. But when i experience writers block i like to live with it (?) i think that its natural and you have to ride the wave. i think art comes to you. Not the other way around. Yes it is fun to create. but inspiration must naturally strike
I would get an ounce of an idea and i would push it and stress over completing it. And then get so frustrated And then its not fun anymore.
but now when i get an idea i transfer it to a physical medium and once i get stuck, i leave it alone. Until it comes back to me again. Or not at all. And that’s ok too. Not everything has to be completed
Keeping creative endeavors in the back of your mind can let them marinate and get nice and lovely. easier said than done but try not to get discouraged that you’re not writing right now. There is some kind of beauty in its absence

Ok stay with me here. Too much public filming. This is going to discourage good weird public activity. We need people being weird in public. Odd dancing, carrying around insane items, freaked out fits, etc. Instead of a quick vid to show your friends, or, god forbid, *get internet clout*, people should be sketching the scene and describing it in colorful language. Now you have to take accountability for your opinion on the matter, your draftsmanship and writing gets better, and the public freaks have plausible deniability in the job interview. This goes for drunk man on the street tik tok videos as well. Put on a newsboy cap and start jotting. There should be exceptions like intentional performances or heinous crimes of course. I’m open to other exceptions I just can’t think of any rn. This will never be a reality but i can try
