I am thinking about my writing 24/7

Just like the business person who always thinks about their work

The happiest moring for me is getting up with a new writing idea. I love writing and try to write regularly in English and Japanese. Having writing ideas every day is crucial for me. Thinking “what I am going to write today,” in bed is part of my morning routine. I rush to my computer after getting up after I have thought about an idea in bed. If I don’t have any ideas, my day’s writing starts slowly.

Most of the time, inspiration doesn’t come to me when I am waiting for it. It often comes when I was not expecting it; when I am working in the garden, when I am having a shower, when I’m cooking, walking, or even when I am writing other articles. Inspiration could hit you anytime, so you just need to grab it.

I think about my writings all the time, consciously and subconsciously. When I am awake, I am looking for something that I can write about. When I am sleeping, I am dreaming about writing. I sometimes get inspiration from my dreams too.

I started writing Haiku and Tanka poems a couple of months ago. Nature is one of the main subjects which Haiku poets write about. I became a serious observer of nature after I started my ‘100 Haiku project.’

Now, I am thinking about my writings 24/7, and try not to ruin a flash of inspiration. It’s just like the business people who are thinking about their business 24/7. Writing is my life’s work and I want to be more creative.

Some people say that creativity is congenital, but I don’t think so. I believe we can train our creativity through practising. We can even train our receptor of inspiration. We just need to be ready to accept a spark of inspiration 24/7.
