surroundings and creativity
Good Morning
People often say things like "I can't come up with any ideas," and
I've noticed that sometimes it's not about lacking creativity but more
about the environment we're in.
For instance, when I'm constantly on the move, surrounded by noise and
heat, with crowds bustling around me, my brain switches to survival
mode. In that state, creativity feels like a distant memory, and I
just go through the motions like an NPC.
But now that I'm in a calm, quiet space with just the right
temperature, it's like my brain can finally take a deep breath and
relax. Suddenly, ideas start flowing again, and I feel motivated to
create. It's amazing how much our environment can influence our
creativity. When conditions are tough, our brains prioritize survival
over innovation, leaving little room for creative thinking.
I wouldn't be surprised if many people struggle with creativity simply
because they're stuck in environments that keep them in a perpetual
state of fight or flight, just trying to get by day by day.
