Inspiration.

 Lately I've been feeling pretty uninspired when it comes to blog writing. I open my blogger dashboard and stare at the blank page for so long that I lose track of time. I'm not a very patient person. But I'm also a perfectionist. I don't give up easily either. These qualities combined together make it very hard for me to not write for a long time. Writing is a passion of mine and if I say I don't have time to write then I am just fooling myself. Also I really hate when people say "I don't have the time to do that." Or "I am so busy I can't possibly do this." The concept of not having the time to do something is basically false. It's all about priorities and preferences. If you love something YOU WILL make time for it, no matter how busy your schedule is. And whenever I'm having problems with blogging I have to remind myself that this is something I love. Something that I want to be doing. And I will keep doing it until it is ingrained in my brain that no matter what happens I will blog. Obviously there will be days where I will be facing a writing block or some other issue. But this rule is mainly for putting off things and procrastinating, a bad habit of mine. (oops)

Inspiration comes from everything. You might be sitting in class studying geometry and something the teacher said might inspire you to write about something entirely unrelated to geometry. Then there's nature, which inspires unexpectedly. Try sitting in a park one day, just sitting with your notebook, looking around and noticing things. TRUST ME. You will be so inspired, you wont even believe it. Noticing whats happening around you is a great way to get your creative juices flowing. Look beneath the surface. Read between the lines. USE A LOT OF IDIOMS. (they're so fun I LOVE 'EM)

I don't know when this turned to a "tips to get inspired" blog post but that's where my thoughts took me. At least I'm over my writing block so I'm gonna go ahead and post this ramble.

As always. Thanks for reading.
