3 Tips for Ensuring You're on the Right Path by Trusting Your Intuition


Listen to Your Gut Feelings:
Your intuition often speaks through physical sensations. Pay attention to that inner nudge or gut feeling. If a decision feels right deep down, it's worth exploring further.


Reflect on Your Emotions:
Take time to reflect on how different choices make you feel. Journaling or meditating can help clarify your emotions. Trust the feelings of excitement and joy over fear and doubt.

Create moments of quiet in your day to connect with your inner voice. Whether it's through meditation, a walk in nature, or simply sitting in silence, these moments can provide clarity and reinforce your true path.

3 tips to get into a creative routine TODAY!

1. Start Small: Begin by dedicating just a few minutes each day to your creative practice. Whether it's sketching, writing, or crafting, commit to this short burst of creativity consistently. Over time, you can gradually increase the duration as you build momentum.



2. Set Specific Goals: Define clear and achievable creative goals for yourself. Whether it's completing a certain number of sketches per week or finishing a creative project by a certain deadline, having specific objectives will help you stay focused and motivated.



3. Establish a Ritual: Create a pre-creative routine that signals to your brain that it's time to get into a creative mindset. This could involve setting up your workspace, playing inspiring music, or doing a brief mindfulness exercise. By consistently following this ritual, you'll condition your mind to transition smoothly into a creative state each time you sit down to work.
