Bits of Creativity #2

Back on the creativity front, the search continues.

We’re not there yet, but haven’t abandoned the fight either and, as sometimes happens in life, opportunity presents itself like a rabbit out of a hat. Well, maybe not exaaaactly like that, but if you’ll have a look at the pictures below, you’ll realize what it is about this analogy that I found appealing.

Now, as the opportunity presenting itself is not that actionable (other than not letting it pass without taking advantage of it, obviously) and, also, as I’m not going to send you hunting for rabbits, today’s advice for finding creativity is, I’m afraid, still not that out of the box as I wished. But, hey, it appears that it does work anyway!

So, here it goes: dare to step out of your comfort zone, whatever that might mean to you!

To illustrate how I put this into practice, I’ll just renew the invitation to have a look at the pictures below. They are the product of an unexpected opportunity – a closed road and of the decision to do something I wouldn’t normally do – just sit there on the road and take some pictures, even if there were people passing and staring.

I’m quite pleased with the result, so I guess I’m gonna be on the lookout for rabbits…erm, opportunities, presenting themselves from now on.

Have a great end of the week!

    Gutsy, love the photos, and we should absolutely give a f about what strangers would think. Cause I think too often we do let our choices be affected by what others might think, even if it is as harmless as taking some selfies in the middle of the road.

      The fun thing is that, once you do it, it doesn’t feel that difficult anymore. At first it felt weird, but then didn’t really care if anybody was staring.

      Oh, I’m just glad I managed to do it this time; it does feel good to get out of the comfort zone, but I reckon it will take some practice:)
