identify 101 things to make me more creative

Thought of my whole list by carrying around a little notepad with me and writing one down whenever I could.
Now I have to use these ideas.

96. take risks
97. be insane, sanely
98. play the devil’s advocate, especially if you don’t agree with the devil.
99. philosophize on “productive originality”, because not all creative things appear productive, no matter how original they may be.
100. feel the sensation of color (part of being insane, sanely and tasting color)
101. see where creativity is and see where more could be created
Just in case some of those are doubles, here are a few more to bridge the gap.
1. Discuss creativity with others
2. study all fields of study and apply creativity to them.
3. be loving
4. find both the negative and positive aspects of things.
5. find what interests you and others, people places, things…etc.
6. be opinionated
7. use your beleifs
8. be yourself
9. discover subconscious creativity, part of writing down dreams.
10. find what makes myself happy, sad, angry…etc.
11. communicate creativity effectivly
12. use your words
13. if it doesn’t work, do that
14. exxxgerate
15. be sneaky
16. write down every thought for however long you need
17. don’t filter yourself
18. Explain the unexplainable using logic or anti logic
19. discover the best way for you to be creative.

Now all I have to do is do all of these things, which is going to take a lifetime.
