My friends and I recently watched the Avatar series. It was great. Really great. The music was even better. Inspiring even. After watching through it, there were new and incredible sounds going through my head all of the time. But I haven’t written anything lately and this is a problem.
So often we get inspired by something great and we just keep all of the energy to ourselves. Next time you sit down to watch a great film or listen to great music, have a plan to use the inspiration you get from it. Build something great (it doesn’t have to be art, it can be anything). Don’t just sit there and let that intellectual energy turn into intellectual fat.
Or even better; don’t you usually enjoy these inspiring works of art with friends? You may as well include them in your energy using endeavor! Build something great together.
