Big Little ThingsWhere do you find inspiration?
So I’ve been wondering about inspiration lately: where to find it, how to use it, and how to maintain it. You could argue that finding it is the easy part—as long as you’re paying attention as you make your way out in the world, there’s a million things that might inspire you.
But do you know when inspiration’s lacking, and you need to fill up? Do you have specific places you look? Do you alternate those places? Are you conscious of the places you find inspiration and the things you’re then inspired to do?

I like to go to parks, take a walk somewhere different. I enjoy photography alot, I can’t turn of my creativity but I can stop staring at my monitor.

That can be tough, sometimes I get some kind of writer’s block and can’t find anything interesting to write about on my block. So I browse the web, mostly. I buy magazines I normally don’t buy to get a new insight on things. Or I go some place I have never seen before.
I think it is Tom Peter’s recommendation, I think in Project 50, to go to a mall and sit down, and just look and take notes of what you see because inspiration will be everywhere.
