Every once a while we all feel a spell of blankness and that feeling that your infatuation with writing is over,
especially when writing a blog post, and trust me, it’s very common – and a little
too common in me. Normally you’d be tired but mostly even though you’re fresher
than a housefly, something’s barricading your thoughts from fanning out. Like I
said before, it’s very common and very natural. So what could you do when
you’re having one of these downtime moments? Here are a few things that I do
and really help me bring in some fresh thoughts to mind.
·
Have a
break: Yes, you deserve it! Forcing yourself to write is not at all going
to help. Go out and enjoy a night out with your friends and more importantly have fun! There’s no point if you’re
out and still stuck pondering over your halted blog. Trust me, it’s all
temporary.
·
Watch
some T.V: It’s always great to get you’re noggin energized and revitalized.
And what better than some useful
telly watching could there be to achieve this task?
·
Read: Even
though the title’s vague, it doesn’t mean you sit all day long and read the
back of a shampoo bottle. What I meant was, to read something different, a
novel perhaps or even your favourite magazine. This will help enhance your
thought process and bring creative ideas into mind.
·
Treat
yourself to a tasty dinner: Believe it or not, but eating well really helps
your brain juices to flow, thus increasing brain and thought productivity.
·
Interact:
Talk to someone, discuss emerging affairs and news, argue, do everything that
helps you think!
·
Doze off:
Relaxing and falling into a cluster of dreams is vital if you’re looking to
carry on. If the greatest of machines need a rest, as do we. It takes time
recharging the worn out powerhouse and before you know it you’re already fresh
with new ideas.
So there you have it, that’s what I do when my brain is on a
standstill and yes it’s proven (on me in fact). Try them on yourself and see
which ones help you. Glad this could be of help.
