A Question I’ve Been Asking Myself Lately And 3 Things I Am Doing For Introspection

To revamp my creative process

I spend a lot of my time thinking about the autonomous mode our life takes.

But lately, one question I've been asking myself is this:

At what point do our routines turn into auto-pilot modes for our creative minds?

For a few reasons:

• Reason #1: We are overfed with the notion of being productive and closing tasks at hand.

• Reason #2: A template-based process to achieve quick results.

• Reason #3: The pressure of being a creator and churning out content for the algorithm.

To wrestle with this question, a few things I am doing are -

• Being mindful of my creative process to keep switching and changing it before stagnancy creeps in.

• The physical exercise of being on the move while the mental exercise of reading and learning.

• Realizing and reacting to the pressures of exhaustion.

While the thought process allows a very introspective look into the creative process, I think it'll be a while before I come to any sort of solid conclusion.

To conclude, do you think there is a danger of our routines turning into auto-pilot mode for our creative minds? Is it a good thing or a warning sign?
