We behave differently in different times and situations. We are not hungry all the time, we are not awake all the time, we are not asleep all the time. We are different in different times so we are not creative all the time. But…. when you are hungry try to eat the best food and when you are in creative zone try to compose the best tune you can and don’t let that opportunity go by. That is your time to shine.
Sometimes the inspiration comes from within yourself and sometimes it comes from outside. If you want to create something but don’t find yourself in that zone try to listen some other best musicians or your favorite artists or just play a sample from some other musician on loop and get yourself in that zone.
So a solitary deep reflection or the company of quality fellow musicians can trigger the process. Bring your favorite musicians in the loop get inspired and create the magic. Positive networking will double your creativity.
