Creative Block? Here's a List of Prompts to Help Open Your Thought Box!

We all get stuck in our productivity. I like to think of creative blocks as boxes we are stuck inside. As in, we are unable to think outside the box. A huge part of my teaching is dedicated to figuratively opening boxes. I create customized writing prompts for clients that are often deeply personal. I do this as a regular part of my teaching practice because it keeps people sifting and when you're sifting you're not stuck.

I was chatting in the SteemitBloggers Discord earlier when a fellow Steemian mentioned not knowing what to write. I recalled a list of topics I'd written specifically for Steemit when I was getting started. I dusted it off and shared (aka copied and pasted) the list into chat. Then I thought, "Hey, I bet these are the only friends here who could use this." I decided to share the list with you, and you can pass it along to your Steemit friends using that handy resteem feature.

Here is the list:

money, losing/gaining power, beginning/ending friendship, dating, death, dining in/out, faith, self-image, video games, advances in technology, missed opportunity, anger, clothing, self-presentation, government, nature, weather, shoes, family, disputes, exercise, politics, music, weight loss/gain, personal growth (pivotal moments), parenting/parents, sex, musical instruments, garage bands, celebrity power, water, disability, BlackLivesMatter, history of (insert topic or location), museums, origins, writing, mirrors, parallel universes, favorite TV shows, movies, light, dark, routine, mental health/stability, marriage, divorce, abuse, violence, magic, ancient wisdom, democracy, hegemony, royalty, lying, boundaries, recovery, addiction, pornography, books, equality, race, profiling, fruit, poetry, fiction, university, high school, middle school, teenagers, religion, war, travel, foreign countries, language, sexuality, gender, grandparents, children, veterans, police, pets, minimalism, cleaning, organization, teams

Yeah. It's a lot. Take it in, but also know if you can't quite find your approach to a topic, I'm around. I love helping people figure out how to write or frame their work. Comment if you are curious about any of these, need help opening your thought box. You can also find me on Discord! Just click the banner below.
