ProgressI know having to commit to learning how to play a new instrument or learning about the basics of art can be tough; no need to fear because there are easier ways to show your creativity. It may not necessarily be shown to everyone you'd want to see it, but those close to you can. What really matters is you being able to showcase that creativity you got in you. Social Media
Right at Home![]() Now here is where DIY projects come into play. DIY, do it yourself, is another way to say that YOU are the creator in which you'd be able to make it original as you'd like. Simply decorating your room can definitely be an easy way to express your creativity. It can be the most affordable as well. By decorating your room, you get to see your view on things everyday and remind yourself that it's okay to be you. Decorating your walls isn't the only way, the placement of your funiture is also another way to show creativity. You can get creative by placing certain things that show how YOU visualize things. Along with the DIY projects, you can make bookshelves to drawers to show creativity. There are limits to decoration and design, it's a simple way to get your creativity out there. Reflection![]() These alternative ways to express one's creativity is simple and memorable. The simple part of it is that one does't need to go through any approval since they aren't working with a big company or doing it to improve who they are working for, it benefits them. It proves to them that they can be creative in their own ways without any judgement from anyone else. They will feel proud of themselves for displaying their creativity where it belongs. On the other hand, putting it on social media means the person accepts the opinions of others on their creativity. There is a difference, criticism is appreciated, but hate will not be tolerated. Of course everyone is entitled on their own perspective of different topics. When one posts about an idea they came up with to benefit whomever, they are committing to the consequences of posting their creativity. For them it is creativity, but others may see it differently. Despite the hate and unapproval, social media is another great way to show creativity. From how one edits their Instagram to how one may caption their picture, it is all creativity.

ProgressVisual Art![]() One way to showcase your creativity is through painting, drawing, watercolor, etc. This is a great way to express yourself because you get to do whatever you want. Whatever route your ideas take is your creativity. The colors can represent something special to you. The audience may or may not comprehend the message or argument of the art, but what truly matters is that you turned your imagination into creativity. DanceDance is also another art form that shows your creativity. Instead of using colors, you use movements and shapes to showcase your creativity. A particular style special to you can demonstrate who you are. By choreographing to that style lets others know how creative you can be with that style. The costumes also play a big role. They are what makes your idea come to life. Props also work just as great. They are fun ways to show your idea. Film Making
Music![]() Music is an extraordinary performing art because there the field is so diverse and presents artist's creativity though rhythm. The different instruments that are each separated into different families represent the diversity. The particular sound each instrument makes, combined with many other instruments, create magic. Music is not all about instruments, but vocals and lyricists as well. Specifically a lyricist gets to show more of their creativity through the lyrics. Their creativity may be rhyming, rapping, or oprah. It all just comes straight from the heart. A musician gets to tell a story through the sounds of their instrument, loud or quiet. When combined all together, the amount of creativity put into one song is unimaginable. ReflectionSince I dance, I would have to go with the style of movement and expression as my presentation of creativity. It may not be easier than painting or drawing my idea, but my body will paint it for me. Through dance, especially through facials, I get to show who I am. Although I am not the best in choreographing, I like to suggest a couple movements to express my creativity. Choreography is a key component in the routine. The choreography tells the story, if there is one. The choreographer first visualizes what they would want to see on stage, then they work around it. I also love to draw, but I am not the best at it. Usually what I draw isn't my own original piece because I like to redraw other things. I'm not really a free-hand kind of person. I also love to make short videos of special occasions my family and I have. I'd usually just film a couple of videos on my phone then when I get home I'd transfer them onto the computer and whenever I can I'd start editing. I only know how to edit the basics on iMovie, but it's a start.
Progress: Coming up with ideas can be challenging at first. Luckily there are some ways to get those ideas flowing. I will be giving a few ways to spark up your creativity. All of them are nice and simple. All it takes is courage to put yourself out there. CollaborateCuriosity is always the way to go. This will lead to different opportunities and challenges. Whether you read or talk to experts about your topic, new ideas will appear. As you roam what everything has to offer, you may see the world through different perspectives. By seeing things in a new way, it leads to the expansion of your creativity. You may also start to see things in a new way. Do Something You Love
Just Do Nothing![]() At times our brains tend to get fried up when we are overthinking or are just out of ideas. Taking a break is highly suggested. Sometimes your best ideas will come when you're not working with your brain trying to come up with the greatest idea. A nap or more sleep tend to be the most common ways to come up with new ideas. I certainly know that it works for me. If your creativity is lacking, relax; let your brain rest. Walk
Pick a Terrible IdeaJust as crazy as the last suggestion, but just as helpful. You could make a list of the worst ideas you can think of. Here comes the fun part, find the best features of those terrible ideas. Might sound hard, but it's a way to challenge your creativity. Perhaps looking at these terrible ideas will spark something creative that you can transfer over to your excellent idea. ReflectionI find all of these ways to improve creativity very trusting. Everybody will encounter different results for each remedy, but that's great because that is what's so special about humans; we are all different. We all have different approaches to many things; hence creating creativity, where one can show off their ideas to others who might like them. My Personal Choice
My personal path towards creativity may be totally different from my neighbor's, but that's okay! It's all part of a process, create, collaborate, produce. The collaboration portion in creativity in very important because it is the time when you are putting yourself out there for others to see, in a good way! It's going to take some courage the first couple of times, but if you are really striving to get your creativity noticed, then go for it.
