Creativity happens everywhere; capture it.
I carry my smartphone everywhere. When I think of a melody, or have a thought, I record it. I also carry 3 x 5 cards with me; I think that they are one of the world's greatest "inventions" and write my thoughts. I later transfer them to a word document or excel file for organizing and completing. Ideas come to me so rapidly sometimes that I can't write them fast enough. I definitely need a stack of 3 x 5 cards at my bedside or bathroom counter for inspiration visits me at strange times and places.
Here's something I've done recently and maybe it will be helpful for you:
For my son’s birthday card, I found a “Superman Diary” at
the dollar store with a colorful Superman figure on the cover. He’s a grown
adult but loves Superman “anything”; I’m thinking because his last name starts
with “S” and the Superman symbol looks really cool! Anyway, I thought this was
a creative “birthday card” that has use for a longer time than just a year.
Next, I wrote birthday greetings on the inside page with my quickly written poem:
Here’s a book to write your goals,
Then choose to work on just 3 of those.
So next year, the “older” you
Will be wiser, wealthier and happier too!
So dear reader, I am writing this because I thought you
might enjoy the idea of using this idea for a birthday card for someone in your
life (it’s actually “cheaper” than most
cards and will be “seen” more; but if mailed may cost a bit more). And
secondly, my intent is to remind you (and myself) to write goals, choosing 3 to
work on so we are constantly in control of how we want our future to become!
