1. How to understand the word inspiration?
The word inspiration, pronounced inspiration in English, is also called inspirational thinking. It refers to a creative and sudden state of mind that appears instantly in literary, artistic and scientific activities.
It can also be explained that when we have feelings, we can communicate with each other without using ordinary sensory organs. It can also be called distance, or perception. Or, it can be understood as the mysterious ability to suddenly rise in the unconscious state of human beings.
We know that the creative ability generated in the unconscious state is very helpful to our creation, and inspiration is very important.
2. How did the inspiration come from?
Generally speaking, in literary or scientific activities, if we study hard, practice hard and accumulate experience and knowledge, then when we accumulate to a certain extent, it is easy to suddenly trigger some creative impulses or creativity, which is called' inspiration'.
Guo Moruo said in "My History of Poetry": "When I was going to sleep at night, my interest in the second half of the poem came again ... That kind of attack is probably the so-called' (inspiration)? "
There is also a cloud in Mao Dun's Untitled: "You love their dexterity, and flowers are in line with art-artistic interest. You said looking at them would inspire your artistic inspiration. "
3. How to inspire our creative inspiration?
Each of us needs the touch of love inside.
When our heart is touched by love, it will wake up and feel our inner life-just like the sleeping beauty who has been sleeping for a hundred years, and finally wakes up after being kissed affectionately.
Each of us needs to be inspired.
Life is not a dull existence.
When a beautiful song suddenly reaches our ears, we will willingly put down what we are doing, just want to listen to that song, and when we see that singer, our hearts can't help singing along!
Then if it is writing, it needs more inspiration; When our souls are touched, we will be creative and want to express ourselves and our inner world. We, who want to write, are eager to write, just as flexible as our breathing.
So what can inspire us?
All the beautiful things in the world-a song, the chirping of crickets in summer, the barking of dogs next door, the crowing of chickens in the country in the early morning, a beautiful face, or an amazing sunset-are inspiring materials, and they are also true, beautiful and desirable in themselves, which can stimulate the goodness in people's hearts.
This method of inspiring is suitable for non-fiction writing.
Of course, we can also get inspiration by reading other people's stories. It should be noted that the purpose of reading is not to imitate, nor to learn writing skills, but to feel the part that touches us most with your heart and then make your own response to writing.
4. Some personal thoughts about motivation.
(1) transformation ideas.
Complex things are simplified, simple things are complicated, and inspiration may sometimes be mixed in them.
(2) Cultivate unique abilities and don't take the usual path.
In daily life, all kinds of laws, regulations and disciplines are often like a framework, which frames people's thinking. In fact, life is completely free. In developing personal potential, we can open our hearts and be brave and unique, because everyone is a miracle.
(3) action.
In life, we should practice more and act more.
Because when you act, you can not only generate active passive power, but also inspire some creative inspiration.
Have you ever had such an experience? You are glad to find that you have come up with a very creative idea. After two days, you find that others have realized it. If you want to develop your creativity, you might as well think of an idea and implement it immediately. Only after you have tried it will you know its feasibility. Experience is the mother of wisdom.
(4) curiosity.
Everything, we can re-examine the world.
With the rapid development of Internet and technology, people become accustomed to many things, and slowly develop the bad habit of being lazy. In fact, in life, as long as you observe more and discover with your heart, there are still many untried pleasures.
Curiosity about things is the starting point of cultivating hobbies.
(5) solve the problem.
A person's life is a process of finding and solving problems.
In life, sometimes, when you encounter something, if you think about it carefully, there may be some problems. The process of solving problems is also a pleasure, which can inspire some inspiration.
(6) tourism.
See more, see more, know more, know more.
There are mountains outside the mountains, there are people outside the people, and there are days outside. This is my spiritual feeling after coming to Shanghai for more than three years.
(7) meditation.
Meditation can relax our brain, and it can also give our brain a quiet state and decompress appropriately.
One suggestion is to practice meditation, never buy books, try more and practice more, and refine the methods that suit you in action. The experience and wisdom of meditation cannot be learned in books.
(8) brainstorming.
How many things can you associate with a word, a word and a sentence?
Write it down. Doing this exercise often can broaden your mind and enhance your thinking ability.
The above are some methods and skills I have summarized about how to motivate and share them with you.
