I feel creative only when I work on something that truly aligns with my passion.

Recently, I’ve noticed my creativity slowly returning through writing WordPress blogs. Writing every day feels like an exercise for my brain—it keeps my mind active and healthy.

Of course, office work also involves creativity in its own way: problem-solving, thinking logically, and finding better solutions.

In one way or another, we all have to be creative in our day-to-day activities. I believe our brains are hardwired to think creatively, and every day creative thoughts flash through our minds—we just have to catch them and make use of them. Millions of thoughts zip through our brains; we need to tap into them and put them to use.

However, lately I’ve felt a blockage in my creativity. The reason is doom scrolling. I’ve been doing it without even realizing it, and this habit has developed over the past two or three months. Doom scrolling is one of the worst things for the brain, and I know I have to stop it.

How did it begin?

With reels, of course. Someone would send a comedy reel, I’d watch it and laugh, and then the scrolling would begin. Laughing is good, but this habit slowly leads to something unhealthy. I need to break this pattern.
