There is a belief out there that those who are really creative are disorganized and scatterbrained. The depiction that usually comes to mind is a painter whose home is a mess that can’t remember even the most basic family things. They just can’t live normally because their creativity doesn’t let them. That’s honestly a character. Maybe in the past, some people did that, but only rich people. Most people now do not have the means to do that. And it’s not even necessary to live like that to actually be creative and successful at it.

How Creativity and Wellness Overlap: Interview With Rebecca Hass

Rebecca is a fellow multi-passionate podcaster and creative wellness coach. She helps people have a balance of wellness and creativity to fight burnout. Because there is too much culture out there where we brag about how busy we are and how little sleep we get. And we need to change that.

For most people, creativity is not the first thing they think of when they think about self-care. But it can be one of your creative hobbies that give you the time and space to rest, and allow the space to work things out. And some of your wellness can be taking away the things that do not bring you joy and can be taken away to give space for other things that are important.

The Ultimate Goal Setting Sheets for Any Creative Project at Any Age

Isn’t it funny how so many of us think that we can’t do things because it’s too late? Like somehow the hourglass filled with sand can tell us time is running out and we’re stuck doing what we’re doing today forever. I call bunk on that!

It’s never too late to learn a new language, travel to a new corner of the world, or switching up your art supplies of choice.

Solitude: And Why You Don't Need a Committee

The other part is because I could never find someone to do these things with. And I refuse to sit around waiting to do something just so I wouldn’t be alone. That is another way to learn about yourself, to get away from the people who have preconceived notions of you.

Don't you get tired of all the noise? Of everyone's "advice"? Cause I am. You can go around looking and asking for others' opinions and knowledge. But in the end its your choice. You know what is best for you; and what your wants and needs are.

The Meaning of Courage and Creativity

What does courage mean to you? Heroic acts or risking your life? How about creativity? Fantastic works of work only made by a select few, the “starving” artist, or giant technology companies?

It’s much simpler then that.

The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines them as:

Courage: mental or moral strength to venture, persevere, and withstand danger, fear, or difficulty.

Creativity:the ability to create and to make new things or think of new ideas.

That is it. Nothing more. No long list of prerequisites to have it or do it. You choose what you do with it.
