There is creativity in Rest.

Today was supposed to be day 11 of my 30 days writing challenge but I can’t seem to make my brain produce anything.

Part of creativity is learning when to relax. It is okay to admit how tired you are on some days. It is okay to admit that your best wasn’t enough for that moment.

When too much pressure is applied to an elastic band at once, it streches untl it snaps. But when pressure is reduced, contracts into it’s original shape. If pressure is applied carefully, rather than snapping, it streches and exceeds the former limit. Know your limits.

Do not despise the blank mind of today. The same mind will produce amazing pieces on another day. -Oluwatoyin Akande (2020)

On days that you can’t carry on, you are allowed to rest.

You live to create another day.

Cheers
