For the first time here on my blog, I’m going to dedicate an entire month to one single topic:

Creativity!

Sounds limiting, but it’s actually the completely opposite. I am excited to find all of the different ways that creativity relates to our lives and all of the different ways we can improve and leverage our creativity to create our onlyness.

Here we go! First post of the month on creativity starts…now.

I recently started contributing regularly to an awesome site called Lifehack.org. I’m kicking off the month by sharing that piece of news with you, and inviting you to check out my first over there.

Guess what it’s about? If you guessed creativity, then you know me all too well.

Check out an excerpt of that post below:

3 Steps to Fuel Your Creativity & Purpose with Exercise

Those who know me well know that I’m have a serious, worrisome, highly problematic addiction. I’m 100% addicted to exercise.

Seriously, it’s a problem.

You’re probably asking yourself why that could ever be a problem. Most people try hard to create an exercise habit, and here I am complaining about my compulsion to hit the gym?

It’s not just my body that is hooked on the endorphins and treadmill-running. I think I could deal with that, if that were the case. But, here’s the kicker — my brain is completely addicted.

How could the mind be addicted to exercise?

In my experience, there is no better place to come up with ideas than on the treadmill. I’ll usually be mid-run when an idea pops into my head, and I’ll reach for my phone to jot it down. Sometimes, it comes in the form of a full-fledged project and other times only a string of words. Either way, it’s amazing how running and working out helps me come up with amazing new stuff.

Thanks for reading, and I hope you check out the full article on Lifehack.org!
