This post idea came from a question in a recent #blogospherechat, the question was what do you do if you’re lacking inspiration – or something along those words. You’d swear a light bulb had just appeared above my head when this question came up because I thought what a great idea for a post? Well, here we are; Inspirations for a Lifestyle post.
You could probably list down hundreds, maybe thousands – we all have our own little things that inspire us to write, these are just few of my favourites.
Adventure – What better way than to go out, maybe somewhere new? Maybe to your favourite place, whether that be a café, book shop or even somewhere next to that river you have visited since you were a child. We all love to read about different places, old or new.
Favourites – Show us your a list or a series of your favourite things, it could be films, songs or maybe recipe’s and drinks. Depending on how much you’d like to write about them, you could decide on just one post, or a series of 5-10!
Camera Roll/Instagram – What have you been taking pictures of lately? It could be your pets, your food (we’re all guilt of it!) or silly pictures with your friends – show us! They don’t have to be those Pinterest-worthy pictures you usually take for your blog, sometimes its nice to see the more natural pictures on your camera roll too.
Previous Life Experiences – Tell us about that time you achieved something you’re proud of, or your embarrassing first kiss. Something we all love to read about is personal experiences, no matter how embarrassing it may have been at the time.
Dig out that Memory Box – I have mine somewhere, buried in all of the stuff that still haven’t unpacked. Filled with wristbands from gigs, tickets from shows and T-shirts from holidays; share it! Show us what’s in your memory box.
What inspirations do you use when you’re uninspired? I’d love to hear!
These are some great ideas, they will definitely help when I’m stuck for ideas!

This is a great little list! Sometimes I just force myself to go out and try something new. Often I get some friends to tag along with me so then it’s a bit more fun to have others along for the fun. (:

hey guys please check out my new blog at megwritessite.wordpress.com Thanks!
Great ideas! I’ve never thought about previous life experiences in that way before, but definitely will now moving forward. Thanks for sharing!
Author
I think sharing previous experiences is always fun to write about, whether they we’re good or bad – or even cringe worthy! I always love reading about others experiences.

Those are some great ideas! I love posts like this, sometimes idea lists remind you of ideas you’ve had before but slipped your mind before you could act on them…
Author
Thank you sweet! I hate when an idea slips your mind, that’s why I always have my notebook and diary with me.

I keep mine with me…but don’t always write things down straight away (so silly haha). But i’m getting better 🙂 x
Thanks for the tips. I’m thinking of starting a blog myself so I’m pleased I came across your post.
Author
I say you should go for it! You have nothing to lose 🙂
