How can I become more creative?
How can I become more creative? I love this TED talk by Ken Hughes. He talks about the dangers of living a routine life, a life where we stop having adventures. Apparently, time passes quickly when we don’t do much with our lives.
Ken questions whether we could reverse this effect, to get the impression of time slowing down, if we filled our days with new activities. He explains his concept of time-bending, where he introduces more things into his schedule. He challenged himself to spend a year where he experienced something new every single day. I find this idea fascinating. I plan to take on his challenge and start blogging about my new experiences in life.
This talk gave me a lot of excitement and optimism about the journey ahead. It is all about living a life that is open to the opportunities around us. Play leads to creativity, which leads to innovation. And it’s a lot of fun too! I love the idea of living a playful life, it seems like a win-win situation to me!
Project 365
I set up this website after deciding that I want to build a more creative life for myself, so I can give up my job and be in control of my own destiny.
I have set myself a goal of publishing an article on my website every day this year, to document my journey from employment to self-employment.
The name I chose was Project 365 because I see this as a year that I have dedicated to learning and self-development, as I countdown to freedom. It started on 1st January 2021, so I have 272 days to go!
