I loved when Kayla shared her 3 tips to stay in the creative process or to learn how to be creative.

1. Every single day, at the end of the workday, leave yourself with something that has to be finished the next day. That way the next morning you are not sitting there wondering what you should do next. Finishing that last project is like your warm-up for the day.

2. Creativity doesn’t mean you need to create something totally new. Look at something you are already making and ask “What’s one small change I can make to this to make it something new?”

3. Learn how to edit your work, and learn how to not be so precious with each piece you make. Develop your own quality standards and learn how to scrap a piece at any stage of the process. This can be hard, but the more you do it, the less pressure you feel to make something ‘good’ every time, and you will be freer to just try something new and creative.
