Not Getting Enough Sleep

03

There are two types of sleep. One is REM, and the other is Deep Sleep. REM is a light form of sleep where we have rapid eye movement. It takes an hour and a half to move from REM to Deep Sleep. Deep Sleep is important as it catalogs all the information taken during the daytime. If we lose deep sleep, we lose creativity.

Too Much TV

04

Too much TV is dangerous. It puts us in a vegetative state where our conscious mind goes into autopilot. And thus, it hampers most of our creativity.

You are Too Tired

05

FOMO is the word here. Too much work, fear of missing out, and no sleep increase cortisol levels, increasing stress and anxiety. And, with stress and anxiety, it becomes too difficult to be creative anymore.
