Writing an article doesn’t just mean putting down thoughts into words then typing and writing it. You have to capture the interest of your readers and get them to keep on reading. To get your message across you have to get the attention of the reader and have a firm grasp of their interest and pique their curiosity.  You need to develop the correct mindset.

The main ingredient when writing an article is a to be creative. While creativity may come natural to many people, some just gets into a serious case of writers block. Many writers have literally torn their hair out when they get writers block and just can’t seem to get their creative juices flowing. 

Putting words into images in the readers mind is an art. A clear and crisp depiction requires a certain flair that only creativity can provide. Similes and metaphors help a lot, but the way an article gets developed word for word, sentence by sentence then paragraph by paragraph into a whole article develops the mindset of the article. 

So just what do you have to do when nothing comes to mind? There is no surefire ways to get the perfect ideas but there are easy ways to get your creative juices flowing. No one can guarantee you of having the perfect mindset but many methods may aid you in achieving the state of mind needed to develop a creative article. Here are five easy ways for that.

1) Keep a diary or a journal with you always. Ideas can be triggered by anything you may hear, see, or smell. Your senses are your radar in finding great ideas. Write all of them into a journal and keep it with you for future reference. You may also write down anything that you have read or heard, someone’s ideas could be used to develop your own ideas and this is not stealing. Remember that ideas and creativity can come from anywhere; it’s the development of the idea that makes it unique.

2) Relax and take time to sort things out. A jumbled mind cannot create the mindset needed for new ideas. Everyone must have a clear mind if one wishes to have their creativity in full speed. Get rid of all obstacles that can be a hindrance to your creativity. If you are bothered by something, you cannot force your mind to stay focused.

Try to relax every time that you can and think about your experiences and interactions with others. Your experiences are what shape your mindset and your opinions which could be reflected on your writings. Try to discover yourself, find out what triggers your emotions. Discover what inspires you and what ticks you off. You can use these emotions to help you in expressing yourself and your ideas, with this you can grow creatively.

3) Create a working place that can inspire your creativeness. Your working place can be quite a hindrance if it doesn’t put you in a good mindset. Creativity comes from being in a good state of mind and a messed up workplace that causes distraction won’t be conducive in firing up your creative flow.

Surround your working place with objects that makes you happy and relaxed. You may put up pictures, or scents, objects that inspire, or anything that can get your creativeness cranking. A clean and well organized workplace also rids of distractions and unwanted hindrances. With a good working place, you can work in peace and never notice the time pass by.

4) Set the mood. Setting the mood requires you to just go with the moment or to induce yourself to feel what puts you in the correct mindset. Finding out what makes you tick could help you find ways to get your creative juices flowing. Set the pace and tempo for your mood and everything else will follow.

There are many ways to set the mood. Some writers have been known to use alcohol, a little sip of wine to stir up the imagination. Some would like some mood music while others let the lighting of the environment create the mood.

5) Go on a getaway and just do something crazy. Letting yourself go and have fun produces adrenaline that can make your imagination go wild. Take an adventure or a solemn hike. Whatever it is that is unusual from your daily routine can take the rut out of your schedule. In no time at all, your creativeness will make use of that experience and get your imagination to go on overdrive.

Why YOU need Mulitiple Streams of Income, in Today's economy.

How many people to do you know over the last five years that have run into financial difficulties?  Everyone know somebody whose business falied, got laid off, couldn't make their house payments and list of financial difficulties go on.  So the question is how many of these people had multiple streams of income???????

I would bet most did not.  Just like people diversify their investments, you must diversify your income.  Look at most the richest people in the world, the great majority have many different and diverse businesses.  Donald Trump for instance owns Hotels, Golfcourses, Resorts, Office buildings, and many other types of Real Estate in addition to his television show Celebrity Apprentice.  These are just a few of his current businesses.

I learned this lesson when the Real Estate market crashed in 2008.  I am a Real Estate Appraiser, Associate Broker, and investor.  By diversifing my income streams I have been able to weather the Real Estate bust.  During that time I started looking to further diversify my income.  So what did I come up with?  I got involved internet marketing and network companies.  Now I am in the process of diversifying my income even more so if there is another recession   I will have multiple income streams in various niches, so if one business is not going to well the others will.

Let me show you have you can diversify your income, and create multiple income streams for you and your family.  Don't wait NOW is the time to get started, I will show how you can have multiple stream of inocme and how you can grow your businesses on the internet and offline.

Looking forward to speaking with you.  Contact me today!!!!! billschall2@gmail.com
