A short YouTube video by TJ Walker (uploaded March 30, 2022) where he advises that creativity cannot be forced but the right environment can increase the odds of having great ideas. He recommends personal habits that work for him—daily walks on the beach and long, leisurely showers—and encourages viewers to discover and adopt the environment that makes them most creative.
You cannot force yourself to be creative and to come up with great, brilliant ideas. But you can force yourself to be in an environment that increases the odds of you being most creative. For me, that's going for a walk on the beach, something I do every day. It's taking a long, leisurely shower. Good ideas come to me then. Good ideas don't typically come just sitting right in front of the computer. You got to know yourself if you want to be more creative. Figure out what's the best environment for you and then put yourself in that environment. Please follow the TJ Walker habit.
