How To Get Creative Ideas Flowing

How I get creative ideas is usually when I am reading. I have read a lot of great positive inspirational books and while I read I get ideas! That is right. Often when I read my mind starts to wonder and I actually start thinking of possibilities or solutions. Of course, you should be reading books about inspiring wonderful ideas to help you achieve this alpha state. Some great authors I have read are: Dr. Wayne Dyer, Deepak Chopra, and Andy Andrews for starters.

We have made available on our website a book review section as well for you to get some more ideas about what books we enjoyed and why.

But the process of reading is to learn and when I sit down to read I start to drift off a little and start to get some creative ideas. You should write them down and act on them when you can as soon as possible and then you have to pick up the book and re-read that section again.

My subconscious mind does that to me. If I have questions lingering and want to focus on solutions, sometimes during conversations I may get ideas too. That is why it is important to have a mastermind group of a few people who you can talk over ideas with. The end result is that you support each other with the idea that anyone can accomplish what they set out to do, all you have to do is first decide. By allowing yourself to envision the idea sort of like daydreaming you can think how does that feel if this happens or that happens and yeah - this will work!

But remember to write those ideas down as you get them. You may get ideas while you are in the shower or while driving so sometimes it may be difficult to write it down, so ask yourself to remember it and why you want to remember it when you do get a chance to write it down. Ideas pop into your head at all times of the day, even if you are watching TV, you may see something which will get you to start to think about your own situation and voila, you have an idea.

Some of the best ideas in the past with famous scientists involved were they were relaxed about getting the solutions and sort of just become "detached" from it. They either had a dream or the idea popped into their head, and all this happens from the subconscious mind. The process of Isaac Newton discovering "Gravity" is a very common one. There he was sitting under an apple tree and he gets the answer he was seeking. This reminds me to suggest that you can read a great book by Dr. James T. Murphy, "The Power Of Your Subconscious Mind". He has examples illustrating this concept and while reading the book I got an answer to the problem I was facing, the answer just sort of popped into my head in the middle of the night just after I awoke from a dream. So try it, it worked for me!

So enjoy your book reading and really allow yourself to relax and see what pops into your head! I am available for one on one coaching sessions as well. Contact me through my website.
