Forget The Nail Clippers

Habits can be a good thing or a bad thing. In my case, this habit is in the middle. This habit is picking my nails and hangnails. A lot of the time until blood is drawn. Although this sounds very painful and bad for me it leads to positive things. Picking my nails often leads to me brainstorming and my most creative moments. I can pick my nails wherever and whenever. But this also means I'm always thinking. I can honestly be thinking of anything. But what I'm usually thinking about is something in the moment. It's funny I say my most creative moments are moments in pain. It sounds bad but this is a habit I have been doing my whole life and I don't think it's a habit I'll get over. Anyone can be creative. You just have to find how and when you're creative. This is how I'm creative whether it is weird or not. Find you’re weird!
