Creating a good content that will be admired by online audience can be breathtaking and time consuming.
These days, it takes a lot of time and energy to create something rare, realistic, and valuable because the internet is littered with contents posted by people all over the world.
To stand out, you need to look within and think out-of-the-box. It is no longer an easy thing to create something that will inspire generations to come as it was some decades ago.
The internet has grown big and is growing bigger; it has become the marketplace of the world where varieties of things can be done and achieve from the comfort of one's home.
How do you compete with endless number of people that are using the web and social media everyday to do one thing or another? How will you stand out?
The truth is, you need to be creative and unique if you want to be noticed.
To be creative required not only skills but to have adequate knowledge about what you intend to create.
Creativity is the pathway to success when it comes to content creation—you need to think and look deep to bring something unique out for the world to see.
I was in my room thinking about what to share this morning when it came to my mind to write about what I was thinking about. I needed an idea about what to write but I got lost.
After vigorous thought that took more than an hour, an idea came, which is what resulted to what you are presently reading.
I wanted to write an article because it has been a while since I've published anything on this site, but I needed an idea about what to write.
It is not everytime you have inspiration to create something. It is not everytime you are motivated to do something. Sometimes, you need an idea to ignite your aspiration.
I desired to get something done but I got lost about how to go about it. I held a phone in my hand and I was just looking at it not knowing what to write in my notepad.
It is a well known fact that all great achievement started with an idea. Skill is essential, knowledge is essential, but sometimes these are not enough to make a difference.
Sure, they do help in most cases, but there are times when you will be devoid of thought and you need to get something done.
Skills and knowledge won't help in such situations because you won't know where to start. Most of the content you read, view, and interact with everyday on the web were born out of ideas.
A great idea can make a whole lot of difference in how you start, how you build, and how you end your content.
Experienced digital creators are not left out in this whole thing. We learn to improve ourselves each day because the world demand more from us everyday.
To meet people's expectation, you must have something that is substantial enough to quench their thirst. As I said earlier, it is good to have skills, but skills are never enough.
"An artist tool is as good as his sight."
Sight, intelligence, and experience are of importance in creating good amazing contents, but you also need ideas. You need to be creative—only ideas can help you attain that.
How great your idea is will determine how good your content looks to the world.
It is a good habit to have a pen with you at all time to jot down any idea that comes to your mind. This will help to keep you motivated and not depleted like I was this morning.
Have you ever been in a situation where you are completely lost about what to create?
Let's hear your story.
