Cat Rocketship • Unlocking your creativity

Unlocking your creativity

I follow at least four bloggers right now who are hosting e-courses called something like, “unlocking your creativity.”

They charge money for these classes. One of them, booking now, runs for $100.

Stop everything. I will tell you the two-part secret to unlocking, unblocking, encouraging, growing, honing, refining, expanding, and firing up your creativity. For free.

Do things. Go outside. Look around. Write things down. Listen to music. Take care of plants. Read a book. Watch a movie. Have conversations.
And then do other things. Draw. Sketch. Doodle. Carve. Find. Gather. Arrange. Edit. Practice. GO.

There is zero magic in being creative. In being an artist or a writer or a filmmaker. It’s all just practice, and the sooner you accept that there is no shortcut besides just working, the sooner you start getting better.

Yay! $100 saved.
