10 Websites That Are Guaranteed To Make You More Creative

When I eventually moved into my own self appointed creative role, I flourished. At least, I thought I did. I love every single minute of sitting with designers, web developers and technology experts, created the next best thing for Marketing Eye or our clients.

“If everyone is walking one way, walk the other”

Having creativity is critical to solving problems in all parts of our lives.

For inspiration, I check out Ted Talks, surf the net, push myself to do things that I would not normally do, read, throw caution into the wind, stand up, sit down, play around, talk to people, spend time alone and in general, I try to be more open and aware.

Here are 10 websites that inspire me – everytime.
