How To Become More Smart, More Creative And More Productive
The last three years have been difficult for apparent reasons. Inflation, Covid and global conflict.
Increasingly people are taking time to lean into their creativity like never before.
We’ve seen a considerable rise in side hustles, & content creation. It’s great to see people dive into their passions.
I’ve been creating content and leaning into my passions and hobbies for the past ten years, and in that time, I’ve learned a few strategies to get started and continuously improve.
Get Educated
We all have different methods of learning. Do you enjoy video content? Audio content? Reading? Lean into the style that works for you.
Create a routine which includes educational content.
While driving, I listen to audiobooks through Audible + podcasts.
Education is the key
Your Circle
The people you surround yourself with daily significantly impact your overall success.
To become more intelligent, creative and productive, you must interact with people doing this. Most of us don’t know people in our daily lives who are achieving the kinds of goals we aspire to; luckily for us, we have the internet.
Follow people who are doing things you want to do
Avoid mainstream media & negativity
Use social media to connect with like-minded individuals through mediums such as Twitter Spaces, Clubhouse, and Reddit subgroups.
Start
Action breeds action. The best way to get your creativity going is to start what you aspire to do. Everyone sucks at first, so begin.
Build daily habits which serve you. Learn every day, and build a network of people who strive to achieve similar goals. Stay consistent! Consistency and discipline are the keys to your success.
