In this article we think about the moment where you get an inspiration hole. What can you do when you get no ideas anymore?

Sometimes it is so easy you get thousands of ideas. Geoff Coates wakes up earlier and stays in bed for a longer time just to give more time to the creative outlets. I always get my ideas when I drive with the car between munich and salzburg. When you are in this phase you should give yourself time to let your ideas grow.

But there are these other days. From one to another day the inspiration simply is .. gone. It can last for weeks.

„It’s like my head’s sprung a leak, and every spark of creativity has leaked out.“ – Geoff Coates

But as hard as you try, the inspiration doesn’t appear when you force it to come. You should not despair.

Keep going ! Don’t give up. Even when you have no ideas you can draw something, it can be anything. When you would sit around and fell sorry for yourself you wouldn’t see the ideas all around you. So keep on doing something. Go with open eyes through the world. The only option to get your inspiration and ideas back is to draw even if it looks terrible or to write even nothing makes sense. Anytime your ideas come back you can’t say when but it will happen and you have to be ready to notice it.
