29 WAYS TO STAY CREATIVE from TO-FU on Vimeo.
Even if you're a creative type, sometimes you just get stuck. This quick little two-minute video by To-Fu Motion Graphics gives you 29 ways to get unstuck. I love the very first one - I'm a diehard listmaker. I bet #8 applies to a lot of us too. Is there anything you'd add to the list? What gets you going when your inspiration is lacking?Link via Design.org
If you find you're sounding like a grumpy old codger who thinks everything is crap,
find a way to snap yourself out of it.
Fight the grumpies any way you can.

Snort Absinthe,
tickle polar bears,
name pigeon turds,
say, "Thank You" -A LOT,
force yourself to name even 1 [one] good thing every day,
etc. ...
There's something about getting suckers to pay for the obvious that gets my own creativity going (or at least pays the bills for that summer cabin).
Also, "SAFFTY". The creator didn't bother proof-reading his/her video. But I guess that makes him/her super creative...
Applaud the attempt, for what its worth.
I've been wanting to create an independent and animated tour tunneling through the depths of the human psyche, but being that nobody actually wants such a thing, hence no thing like it currently exists, I don't actually have much incentive to do it, and I feel pretty content myself, I mean, after-all, I already get it.
