5 Great Reasons Why You Should Create Something this Year

There is almost never a reason not to create.

Professional, hobbyist, or dabbler — everyone is a creative.

Some creations are obvious. Paintings, books, ceramics, carvings, songs, and so on. Others of equal importance but less obvious are equations, theories, philosophies, organization tactics, procedures, routines, and so on.

Some of what we create is thought of as mundane and unimportant. Perhaps it is — but that makes it no less important — and is still something you worked to create.

But let’s look specifically at why you should go ahead and create. Many people get bogged down in various ideas that what they might desire to create is unimportant, something that someone else made, nothing anyone will care about, and various other seemingly reasonable notions.

But they aren’t reasonable. If you desire to create something — do it.

Today, I’m going to explore these 5 great reasons to create something this year:

  1. Because you feel compelled to
  2. It doesn’t already exist
  3. If it does exist it’s not the same as what/how you would do it
  4. The world deserves it
