If you have decided to become a professional writer, you probably already know that sometimes your creativity level gets low. Clever ideas are rare and you do not come up with such every day. If you want to boost your creativity and improve your professional writing skills, your environment is admittedly very important for you. It's a well-known fact that working in a pleasant and clean comfy spot is one of the steps toward being a good writer. This process is being improved when you are involved in carefree activities. Here are some activities and techniques that can really power-up your writing skills.

#1. Take time to be alone

According to HuffingtonPost solitude has a great impact on your creativity. Self-knowledge and overcoming the fear of being alone is the most important factor that will help you to find your inner creative voice. Being alone can calm your thoughts down and give you many answers to different questions. Take some time to just enjoy the rain alone and don't just stare at it but feel it with your whole being.

#2. To clean, or not

Messy home can be a distraction. According to a study from Jeff Goins, mess creates stress and stress is the biggest enemy to creativity. Your work spot, even if you are in a cafe needs to be clean and soothing your pressure. If you are working from home, you need to clean up your working space, desk or couch daily. Try to make a cleaning check list, so you can see your progress and feel good about it.

If you prefer to keep your focus on the other calming techniques, you could always book a cleaning company. The important thing is a clean space which equals to clean mind.

#3. Try new things

Going sightseeing in the mountain or a vacation on the beach and even jumping with a parachute can be creativity stimulating. Try to experience the new feeling, try new activities. After all, many writers are writing about their real experiences. Embrace the change and do something new for you. You could always ask a friend to join you.

#4. Embrace the morning sun

Watching the sun rising early in the morning is a great way to embrace the nature beauty. Many people do not appreciate nature, but this is our primary habitat, so we should try to become one with it. The sun can be inspiring and make you feel like a part of something greater. Waking up early when others are still sleeping and there is nobody to bother you, will keep your mind fresh and calm during the whole day.

#5. Double your dopamine levels

Dopamine is the connection between relaxation and creativity. Dopamine is the reason why we feel good doing some small, mindless tasks during the day. Taking shower, drinking hot chocolate and watching the snow falling down are small activities that dopamine stimulates and helps our mind to stay focused on the important activities. Creativity will fill your brain after increasing your dopamine levels.
