As we fight daily battles in one of the toughest times we have seen in a while, it can sometimes be a challenge to get by each day. Careers in the creative make it harder, as we look around to find inspiration.

A slight bit of consolation can be that it is happening to all of us. So let’s find a way to stay on track.

Commit! – Daily bird watching, practicing a new hobby, mid-day ice cream break, or even a TED talk. Do whatever works for you but commit to it.

‍Explore! – A morning run, yoga to relax your mind, or mid-week virtual game night, we’re up for it all!

‍Have Fun! – This is so important; I could even say you can throw everything else out but this one has got to stay. Remind yourself why this was your dream job at one point in your life, and stay committed to having fun.

‍Stay hopeful! – By now you must be tired of hearing that this too shall pass. But it really will, and we are all in this together. Dream of those days by the pool and the Friday nights with friends again, and stay inspired! A lot of times the silver lining is all the inspiration you need!
