It would be naive to suggest that whenever you are feeling spontaneous, you could just ditch your entire list of responsibilities and do absolutely anything you want. However, spontaneity does not have to be so black and white.
Instead, think of being spontaneous as being more “flexible,” and allow this flexibility to unlock your creative side.
For instance, suppose that you are a business owner, and one morning, you are feeling downright uninspired and cannot for the life of you think about any new marketing ideas. Instead of forcing yourself to do it anyway and possibly wasting your own time and damaging your mental health in the process, focus on something else.
Maybe handle something that is more detail-oriented, like managing your employees, for the time being. Or, get those purchase orders out of the way.
The point is that if you allow yourself to pivot and shift your schedule in accordance with your internal energy, your efforts will yield much better results.
Being able to free-flow is also linked with the divine feminine and can allow us to tap into our natural creativity when the time is best.
So, you can start by outlining a list of your top three priorities each day. Then, tackle them in any order that feels most natural to you at that moment.
If you feel creative in the morning, get your idea generation out of the way. Or, if you need time for your mind to wake up while you sip on a cup of joe, send some emails and wait to get creative until the afternoon.
Intuition Is Your Friend
Much like our day-to-day workflow, you should also rely on your intuition when fueling your body. Whether you visit Whole Foods or a farmer’s market, try to let your heart write your grocery list.
Of course, you may need some staples like eggs, milk, and bread. But, in terms of fruits and veggies, allow yourself to browse around and see what speaks to you.
