Research shows that even if youre nosmarter than most people， you still have thepotential2 to use your amazing creativitywhen writing. But， why are so few peoplehighly creative？ Because there are bad habitspeople learn as they grow up， which areblocks to creative thinking in the brain. Andthey can be broken if you are willing to workat it.

Now lets look at some quick methodsfor getting your creativity back. These aresimple habits you can practice every day.

研究表明，即使你并不比大多數(shù)人更聰明，在寫(xiě)作時(shí)你仍然有潛力運(yùn)用驚人的創(chuàng)造力。但是，為什么很少人具有高度的創(chuàng)造力呢？因?yàn)槿藗冮L(zhǎng)大后會(huì)養(yǎng)成一些壞習(xí)慣，它們是大腦中創(chuàng)造性思維的障礙。而只要你愿意努力，它們是可以被糾正的。

現(xiàn)在，讓我們看看幾個(gè)找回創(chuàng)造力的速成法。這些都是你可以每天練習(xí)的簡(jiǎn)單習(xí)慣。

Exercise more

Usually， the more you sit around， themore lethargic3 and unmotivated4 you feel.If youre not actually tired， make time tomove around more than you normally do.

You can walk around the block， or takethe stairs instead of staying in your room.Changing your environment helps you seethings from different perspectives5.

多運(yùn)動(dòng)

通常，你閑坐越久，就越感到昏昏欲睡，沒(méi)有動(dòng)力。如果你不是真的累了，那就比平時(shí)多花點(diǎn)時(shí)間四處走動(dòng)。

你可以繞著街區(qū)走，或者走樓梯而不是待在自己的房間里。改變你的環(huán)境有助于你從不同的角度看待事物。

Cut out mindless entertainment6

If you choose more creative entertainment，rather than mindless activities， it will have apositive influence on your creativity.

You should read articles and watch videosthat stimulate7 your mind. Carefully choosewhich television shows and movies you watch.

停止盲目的娛樂(lè)

如果你選擇更具創(chuàng)造性的娛樂(lè)，而不是盲目的活動(dòng)，就會(huì)對(duì)你的創(chuàng)造力產(chǎn)生積極的影響。

你應(yīng)該看看能激發(fā)思維的文章和視頻，仔細(xì)選擇觀看的電視節(jié)目和電影。

Follow your inner voice

Dont immediately dismiss8 all of yourcrazy ideas. You can always dismiss them laterif they turn out not to be the best choice foryou. But first， give them a chance.

Brainstorm9 how you can follow throughon an idea so that you can realize a goal.When you do， its much more likely that youllfind a way to get the result you want. It mightnot look anything like your original10 idea， butyoull only discover it by taking the time toimagine different possibilities.

跟隨內(nèi)心的聲音

不要立即否定你所有“瘋狂”的想法。如果它們不是你的最佳選擇，你可以隨時(shí)摒棄它們。但首先，給它們一個(gè)機(jī)會(huì)。

你要就如何貫徹一個(gè)想法而集思廣益，從而實(shí)現(xiàn)一個(gè)目標(biāo)。當(dāng)你這樣做的時(shí)候，你更有可能找到一種方法來(lái)得到你想要的結(jié)果。它可能看起來(lái)與你最初的想法完全不同，但你只有花時(shí)間想象不同的可能性才能發(fā)現(xiàn)它。
