While it is given that some people are naturally creative than others, it is important to remind ourselves of what our minds are capable of. Fuel your mind’s creative power by following these tips:

Find your natural expertise. Ask yourself, “What am I good at?” We all different skills, talents, and abilities and it is important to devote our time to develop our inherent gifts.

Look for sources of inspiration. Back in college, our professor always reminded us to look for new sources of inspiration. I am an experiential learner, and my taste varies widely, so I took my time to research my favorite architects and visited some of their famous works. Such technique gave me fresh ideas, and it helped me generate designs for my project.

Take risks. To test your abilities, be willing to take risks. Failure does not mean your ideas are bad. It could mean many things, perhaps, some improvement.

Don’t give up, and believe in yourself. Always remember, we are all born with the potential for creating incredible things.
