Lately I’ve been walking around in a creative funk. Cranking out the work for clients, but letting my own creative projects and interests fall by the too busy, too stressed, too responsible, too insert-your-affliction-of-choice-here wayside. It’s creative malaise; I’m feeling uninspired. Is it just me who suffers from this malady, or does the same thing happen to you?

Hi Kim, this is really a natural phenomena of which we all suffers from at one point in time and, I agree with all that TiRoberts said about how to combat the creative funk of a thing. Another thing I does when it comes to writing is that, I discovered that I writes better early in the morning than any other time.

Each time I'm writing early in the morning, the creativity and motivation is always there so, that's also something that others should find out in order to know what time of the day works for you the most.

Thanks for sharing this with the bizsugar community.

Great piece, Kimberly:

I know how it is to walk around in a creative funk. It's happened to me quite a few times.

When I'm feeling like that, or I have writers block, I'll usually browse around forums in my niche for content ideas. Another thing that I've started doing more recently is just simply emailing my subscribers and asking them what they'd like to learn more about. That usually does well for getting my creative juices following.

One other thing that's good for content ideas is reading the comments on popular blogs. All the interesting conversation that takes place there is great for stirring up the creativity pot.

This is my first time visiting your blog, Kimberly and I'm enjoying what I've seen and read so far. I'll be sure to share this post with my social circle. I'll also comment and share it on BizSugar.

Keep the creative juices flowing and I look forward to connecting with you more soon. :)

Ti
