Which environments breed the most creativity — and why? For remote workers, writers and content creators this is a “loaded” question that carries significant weight. With more-and-more creatives rethinking their environments, it’s time to take a deeper look at our creative spaces.
Establishing a creative space is a creative process in itself. It is a process that you should give thought to, invest in and execute to your liking. Admittedly, we all are different and have our own individual triggers.
Your creative space should — not only — be a place where you can feel comfortable, it should also be a place where you can feel motivated, inspired, driven and triggered.
Creativity is a learning process and creative spaces can help us improve our artistic reflexes. Establishing a creative territory can be beneficial for all parties involved. This includes family, friends and pets.
Establishing a creative space will provide an environmental stimulus through classical conditioning. This is a natural way to train your brain to associate your environment with a naturally occurring stimulus (creating content).
Having a positive attitude is a major key to fostering your creative space. When you enter your creative arena (mentally & physically), keeping a good energy will help you to prepare your mind for expression.
It’s important to surround your creative space with items that inspire, motivate and trigger you to create with more passion. How you feed off of energy is important as well.
“For any writer, but for the beginning writer in particular, it’s wise to eliminate every possible distraction.”
For any creative endeavor, energy will always play a major role. For your creative space, designate a spot where you can be mentally, emotionally and physically stable. This will allow you to thrive and hit the gas when necessary.
