People say the arts are creative. Some say right-brained are creative. I believe in STEAM which helps you embrace creativity.Just like you use maths in your daily life, you need a little bit of creativity and creative thinking in life. The artificial difference between the logical scientific left brain and the creative right brain prevents you from fully utilizing your whole brain.

We are all creative. Just in different ways.
I read an article that YouTube for Creators shared. About women creators who inspire.
Rosie an engineer for renewable and clean energy (Engineering with Rosie-Youtube Channel )explained how her first engineering work involved sewing clothes for her barbie and baking!That’s super cool. Imagine most of us have done this and that’s how in different ways we use our creative thinking every day. Writing is a very inclusive way of being creative. It’s possible to start anytime. You can start with a pen and paper or on your phone.

See what happens when you let your fingers move of their own volition.
Write a page a day works for many. For me when I did WriteApage a day. I did write and share daily on social media. But the entire process of sharing the word count made me face imposter syndrome head-on and my monthly blog posting schedule collapsed.
It was the weirdest thing. I had read that announcing your intention to the world helps in achieving goals.
Another viewpoint is better to talk about what you have done after the event rather than before. My experiment in February was a hit when it came to writing practice. But a shocking miss when it came to posting on my blog.
Unfortunately, the study design has faults.
- The Voice of Anchor contest was hectic.
- My daughter had exams and it was back to school kind.
- I was professionally very busy.
- I was doing random busywork
But they are also excuses .What works for me is just writing and not counting words.
Evernote and Grammarly are my writing BFF!
I wrote on pen and paper which made it one more step to publishing. Unlike in A2Z when I write on Evernote, transfer to my blog, and edit using Grammarly on the web browser. Keyword research needs work in this scenario.
What is my plan for that?
Having a process and system prevents burnout and creativity is easier. I am decluttering my clothes, while I tackle the back-to-school excitement and A2Z.I am trying to tap away on the phone and finish work while waiting to pick up my daughter or on her way. Avoiding overwhelm is a priority. Writing helps me channel
I am participating in Ultimate Blog Challenge and #BlogchatterA2Z
