“Oh No!! I have run out of ideas to write, what should I do?!!” “I have been sitting here in front of my computer for a day facing a blank screen and not a single idea pops out!!! HELP!!” Sounds familiar? I bet most of us do, we tend to ran out of ideas to post a topic in our blog even if we crack our minds or shouting for inspirations from higher being for help but all you heard is only your own helpless voice echo from the wall, so what do you going to do about it? Do you drink a lot of coffee or do you just sleep all day to hope you will get your ideas in lucid dream (it’s hard to get one, not for me)? Well here we will go through some of the ways that may help you get some inspirations.
Let’s start with
Coffee
 |
| Cuppa coffee |
Well I am not a coffee
lover, to be honest I drink coffee because I need to be awake it is important
to me because when I am out of ideas I will feel drowsy and then result in
demotivated mood, why coffee helps? Because coffee contains caffeine, and what does
caffeine do is it attaches to our certain receptors so that Adenosine
(something our brain produce) will not make us sleepy, it is important to know
that coffee will not increase your current skills, instead it kind of take out
the negative stuffs and let your performance runs smoothly. You may get
yourself addicted and that is normal, please ONLY take 2 to 3 cups of coffee
else you are consider as a heavy addictive in caffeine, in fact anything good that
is too much, it’s bad for us.

| Nice ambient sound occurring |
Yes, you are right
this is not an actual English term, it is a combination of the word ‘coffee’
and ‘creativity’, No, I did not create the word my own, there is actually a
team that suggested a person cannot be creative when the environment is too
quite or too loud, so a little noise or ambient sound will do great for our
mind to spin creatively and the sound they suggested is putting yourself in a
coffee shop. You can check them out by typing ‘coffitivity’ they actually
provide a loop able coffee shop ambient shop (Yes, you heard me) just to get
you some idea on what they are trying to prove, I personally think that is
quite weird because I am listening to the ambient but what I see is my house
environment, so I suggest to actually go to a real coffee shop and be in that
moment can really help, maybe there are some random people to speak some
keywords that will trigger your mind, who knows?, oh and do not forget to order
a cup of coffee to really boost up your mind.
Toilet/Bathroom
Have you ever heard your friend or heard someone saying something like “Work desk is a place you sleep, Computer desk is a place you eat, and Toilet/bathroom is a place you think”? I think it is true, most of the slight ideas came to my mind during my time in toilet or bathroom. Ever wonder why and how a bathroom works for us? Well it act as a space for us to reflect ourselves or things, thing that had happened, happening, and will be happen in future, because we are alone is a given space, no one to interfere, it is a time we truly get in touch with ourselves, to be calm to think and analyze what is work and what is not work for us, including ideas, one of the best place for critical thinking, of course that must be an average clean toilet or bathroom.Conclusion
Well then, I hope the
above suggestions may help you get your ideas or inspirations out of the blue,
or maybe if you have some great experience other than what you read above,
please do write in the comment for sharing, until then have fun~ (Maybe some
beer might help too?)
