When I first started working online, I’d been writing professionally (in some capacity or other) for most of my adult life. Yet I was surprised to learn how writing played such a large role in online marketing. You need to write … and write a lot… and then write some more.

With the sheer volume of writing, even the most enthusiastic, passion-driven person can hit a creativity wall. It’s like the fire’s gone out.

There’s no single way to rekindle creativity and become enthusiastic again. Everyone’s different and after a while, you learn what works for you.

You might recharge your creativity by …

…attending live and virtual events with people who work in fields that seem far removed from yours.

For a while, I attended meetings with business owners whose clients were Fortune 500 companies. It felt like landing at Heathrow or JFK in a Cessna, surrounded by very fast-moving jumbo jets. But. I got lots of ideas.
