How do get inspired? Where does Creativity come from? For me, it is like JD's sleeping patterns. The more JD sleeps, then the more he sleeps. He sleeps better when he has longer naps. It sounds conterintuitive, but it works.
When I do not feel creative, I just start writing or drawing or something. As I do this more and more, I begin to see more creativity and more ideas. It is a discipline to be creative, and it involves a ton of terrible output. My high school English teacher said Mark Twain wrote some of the worst drivel, but he also wrote enough for several masterpieces too.
After writing about Henry the V, I started thinking about it and wrote another blog about how the Church is the Band of Brothers, and now things are clicking for the sermon. So to everyone in a creative profession, please just be disciplined to create and create.
