6 Ways to Plan ahead for the times You’re Feeling Uninspired

Feeling uninspired is a common experience for many people (myself included). Fortunately, there are several steps you can take to plan ahead for these times and minimise their impact on your productivity and creativity. Here are some tips:

  1. Schedule regular breaks: Taking regular breaks throughout your day can help prevent burnout and give your mind a chance to recharge. Set a timer or schedule breaks into your calendar to ensure that you take them consistently. CHECK OUT: Take a break from what you are doing
  2. Keep a list of ideas: When you are feeling inspired, make a list of potential project ideas, topics, or themes that you would like to explore in the future. This can serve as a resource when you are feeling uninspired, and you can draw from it when you need new ideas. CHECK OUT: Have you heard of ‘Happy Lists’?
  3. Try new things: Sometimes, doing something new or different can help spark creativity. Take a class, explore a new hobby, or simply try a new route to work to break up your routine and stimulate your mind. CHECK OUT: This year I’m trying something different
  4. Seek inspiration from others: Look to others in your field for inspiration. Follow blogs or social media accounts of people whose work you admire or attend events or conferences related to your work to connect with others and get fresh ideas. CHECK OUT: Creating Life Systems
  5. Set achievable goals: When you are feeling uninspired, it can be helpful to set small, achievable goals for yourself. This can help you stay motivated and feel a sense of accomplishment, even if you are not feeling particularly creative. CHECK OUT: Journaling Prompts when Setting Personal Growth Goals
