Having said that, it is important to feed your creative mind and find inspiration during this crisis.

Write Down Your Expectations

Often we have many ideas, but it becomes hard to narrow them down and get to the starting points. What works best for me is writing down my expectations and thoughts on a piece of paper. It helps me immensely in gaining clarity.

Therefore, I would suggest writing down everything that you are thinking and make a mind map. This will help you understand your own expectations from yourself so you can work towards achieving them.

Don’t Aim for Perfection Right Away

One of the biggest problems with most of us is that we want to be perfect at something from the start. However, it is important to note that perfectionism takes a lot of time and practice.

Don’t be too hard on yourself and leave the thing you just started just because you feel you are not too good at it. Keeping this in mind can help you stay inspired throughout the process.

Have you wondered how much practice a great football player needs before he plays in the world cup?

Or do you think all the great minds and scientists achieved their goals in one go?

If they required a lot of practice before reaching perfection, you would need it too, right?

Look for Online Support Groups or Workshops

Thanks to the internet’s age, there are some amazing support groups or online workshops that you can join. Support groups can help you keep up your creativity by sharing ideas and workshops to add new skills to your portfolio.

Remember, it is never too late to learn a new skill. Joining these online groups helped me greatly in keeping up my interest in painting. I want to share that I discovered digital art recently and enjoy doing it a lot.

Studies show that like-minded people and groups can help you keep your motivation levels up.

So, getting in touch with online groups of your interest can be beneficial to you!

Start Your Day with Something Positive

Breaking away from routine life is crucial for finding inspiration and creativity. Although you have to live with restrictions because of COVID-19, you can always start your day with a good meditation or yoga session. It can help you lay a good foundation for the rest of your day.

You can also start your day with nice and calming music or a healthy breakfast. Doing something positive in the morning can help you stay focused and optimistic throughout the day. This can play a vital role in keeping your creativity levels up.

Even the scientific community believes in the power of your mind. If you put your mind to something, you can definitely achieve it!
