Sometimes when we run out of energy, aren't getting new thoughts into our minds, or just seem stuck, it is more difficult to find inspiration. When you start feeling a little uninspired there are many ways to get your creativity to return, most of these will be different from one person to the next depending on your hobbies and interests. Paint, go for a run, go for a walk in the woods, meet up with a friend to talk and have coffee, just do something to put yourself at ease. Whatever it may be, as long as you put in effort you should start feeling more inspired and less stuck. We all feel stuck sometimes, so know that you're not alone. But for now, check out these quotes and maybe they can help to put your mind at ease for now!

'Inside you, there is a power, there are ideas, thoughts that no one has ever thought of, there is the strength to love, purely and intensely, and to have someone love you back - there is the power to make people happy, and to make people laugh - it's full of compliments, and the power to change lives and futures. Don't forget that power, and don't ever give up on it.'" Atticus

I hope these quotes will help you feel a little better. Less stuck or maybe more inspired. Sometimes life can leave you hanging and you just don't know what will be next, but until then keep afloat. Know that sometimes not knowing leads to the best times of your life.
