If you feel a dip in your creativity, you’re not consuming enough.

If you feel like your creativity has declined, or you don’t get as much thoughts or ideas for content as you used to, it’s because you are creating without consuming enough.

You have been creating for too long without exposing yourself to the content of other creators.

This can include not reading books enough, not listening to podcasts enough, everything. You are not reading or watching or listening enough. And it has to be content made by others, or the creative work of other creators. You have to read what has been written by other writers and authors, for example, even if you have written hundreds of books yourself, and not just when you’re still starting out, but in order to keep being capable of writing abundantly or keep being able to write in the first place, not to mention being able to keep producing high magnitude and amount of creative quality output at maximum rate humanly possible. The same could be said about creating whatever type of creative content you make.

In order to go back to being creative again, and go back to getting ideas to post about all the time like you used to in the past, you need to always consume the work of other creators like there’s no tomorrow.

Your creativity did not decline because of the stress of life. You just have no idea what other people are saying, putting out, posting about, or creating for quite some time. You just haven’t been consuming enough lately. You have to eliminate the belief that consuming all day long is a waste of time. It is not, unless there’s no hope for you to ever be creative or become a hyper creative individual one day.
