如果你是個作家或藝術家，你就會明白位置在創造力和尋找靈感方面的重要性。你正在尋找能讓創意源源不斷的地方嗎?來看看這15種能激發你創造力的常見地方吧。
1. Libraries and Bookstores
圖書館和書店
Words are a wonderful thing. You could rearrange the same 26 letters to create an endless array of words that will surely tickle somebody’s fancy.Observe how things like the weight or texture of a book could offer clues for what’s hiding under the cover. A heavy book could symbolize a significant time investment for the writer ***and you, the reader***. A light book could be seen as a short-and-sweet escape perfect for a beach, cruise ship, or even your lunch hour.
詞語是很神奇的事情。你重新排列一下26個字母，就能創造出無限的詞語，必然會讓某些人心滿意足。觀察類似圖書的重量和圖案這些內容會幫你發現隱藏在封皮底下的線索。一本重書標誌著作家***及讀者***投入了大量的時間。一本輕書可以當做在海灘、遊艇或午餐時完美的短暫而甜蜜的休息內容。
2. Early Mornings or Late Nights
清晨或深夜
You know what I love? Being awake with no sound but birds chirping and an ever-so-slight morning glow overhead while the lazy sun opens its eyes for a brand new day. But maybe you’d be more inspired by a hooting owl, glowing moon, and the sound of crickets. Morning or night, the same fact holds true: there is something innately inspiring about getting work done while the rest of the world sleeps.
你知道我喜歡什麼嗎?醒時，周圍只有鳥叫聲，朦朧的晨曦照過頭頂，慵懶的太陽睜開眼睛，開始嶄新的一天。但也許貓頭鷹的叫聲、月光和蟋蟀的鳴叫聲更能激發你的靈感。無論是清晨或是黑夜，這一事實都是成立的：當世界上其他人都在睡覺時，你與生俱來的某些東西賦予你靈感，讓你把工作做完。
3. Hotels
旅館
Hotels are kind of like the purgatory of living arrangements. It is a place that is hard to feel comfortable in despite the fact that you do “home-like” activities such as sleeping, bathing, and brushing. The drastic change in living arrangements could shake you out of auto-pilot from your daily routine and increase your awareness and ability to live in the present.
旅館裡的生活安排有點兒像煉獄一樣。儘管你在做“類似家裡”的活動，如睡覺、洗澡和刷牙，但是卻很難感覺到舒適。生活安排的急劇變化會讓你從每天例行的自動巡航狀態中跳出來，增加你活在當下的意識和能力。
4. Bars
酒吧
If you’re a writer looking to sharpen your ability to write conversational pieces that click with your audience, go bar-hopping ***but not to one of the annoying ones with music so loud that you have to scream at level 11 to be heard***. Alcohol has a way of breaking the barriers to authenticity, so have a drink and enjoy some plain and simple truth with fellow patrons.
如果你是一名作家，想讓自己寫的對話能更容易讓讀者理解，那就去泡吧吧。***但不是那種聲音很吵很煩人的那種酒吧，在那兒得尖叫到11級才能被別人聽到***。 酒後吐真言，所以喝上一杯吧，和酒友們享受一下簡簡單單的實話吧。
5. Parks and Hiking Trails
公園和徒步旅行的路線
It’s easy to forget that we humans are a small part of the life bustling throughout this world. Explore a trail while keeping an eye out for animal life. Observe the unique quirks and behaviors of each animal friend you come across. Turn off your inner-chatter, crank up your listening ear, and enjoy the sounds of the whole other world you are now a part of.
人們很容易忘記，我們只是這繁華世界的一小部分而已。探索一條路線，同時密切注意動物的生活。觀察你遇到的每個動物獨特的怪癖和行為。關掉你內心的聲音，豎起耳朵來聽，享受另一個世界的聲音，而你現在正是這世界的一部分。
6. A Bench in a Busy Downtown Area
繁忙市中心的長凳
Can we just all go ahead and admit we enjoy people-watching? I love to plop down on a park bench with a notebook and coffee, watching the busy city life unfold before me. You are but one person in this big, crazy world. Check in with the rest for a fresh hit of human inspiration that will help you relate to the people around you.
我們不如直接承認吧：我們其實喜歡觀察別人?我喜歡拿著筆記本和咖啡，撲通一聲坐在公園的長凳上，觀看我面前繁忙的城市生活。你只是這瘋狂的大世界中的一個人而已。和他人交流，得到靈感上的衝擊，會有助於處理你和周圍人之間的關係。
7. Record Stores
唱片店
Whether you want to explore a musical genre that’s never been introduced to your ears or admire album artwork that catches your eye, a record store is one place that’s sure to inspire your creativity.
無論你是想探索從未聽過的音樂流派，或是欣賞映入眼簾的專輯封面，唱片店都是能激發你創造力的地方。
8. Movie Ttheaters
電影院
Whether you’re a movie buff or not, there is no denying that films are the preferred art form for most people, so catching some flicks could offer you a hint about what people react to ***not to mention it will be fun***.
無論你是不是電影愛好者，都無法否認，電影是大多數人最喜歡的藝術形式，所以去看幾部電影你就會知道人們對什麼東西有反應了***更不用提有多有趣了。***
9. Old Haunts
故地
Are there any places you used to visit ALL the time but then you got married, had kids and it’s been a while since you visited? Maybe the bar you always went to in college, the Mexican restaurant you loved in high school, or an ice-cream shop you used to adore? Revisit these places to re-live some of your past memories that are likely to bring a smile to your face.
有沒有什麼地方你過去經常去，但是接著你結了婚，有了孩子，然後好長時間都沒有去了?也許是你上大學時經常去的酒吧、或高中時喜歡的墨西哥餐館、或你喜歡去的冰激凌店?重新去這些地方會讓你重溫過去的回憶，很可能讓你的臉上掛滿微笑。
10. Art Museums
藝術博物館
If you’re going to learn from somebody, why not learn from the greats? Explore paintings from a variety of eras, countries, and styles to increase your perspective. Challenge your brain by asking yourself, “What was the artist trying to accomplish with this work?” This game will be especially fun for abstract pieces.
如果你想向某人學習，為什麼不向偉人學習呢?探索不同時代、不同國家、不同風格的繪畫會擴充套件你的視野。通過問問自己這個問題來挑戰一下你的大腦：“藝術家想通過這部作品傳達什麼內容呢?” 這個遊戲對抽象作品而言尤其有趣。
11. Live Concerts and Performances
現場演唱會和表演
There is something amazing about seeing a band or theater troupe that perform with complete harmony.
觀看樂隊或劇團的和諧表演是非常令人驚歎的。
12. Conversation with Friends
和朋友談話
Ideas happen when you stop talking about them and start making them happen….. to an extent. Have you ever had an idea in your brain or written in a notebook that just felt like it was missing something, but then you talked it over with a friend and the missing pieces weren’t far behind? Your friends will have perspectives totally different from yours, so don’t underestimate the power of a simple conversation.
想法會在你停止談論它們並在一定程度上開始讓它們成真時出現。你有沒有過這樣的經歷?當你腦海裡有個想法或把它寫到筆記本上時，感覺好像缺了什麼東西，但是當你和朋友談論它時，缺少的東西就離你不遠了。你朋友的視角會和你完全不同，所以不要低估簡單談話的影響。
13. Supermarkets
超市
There are few places more neat and tidy than your area supermarket. Check out the nifty food packaging, the attractive ***and efficient*** shelf placement, the magazine section, the floral selection, and anything else that jumps out at you. If you’re feeling sweet, buy a balloon or flower for someone special.
很少有地方比你本地的超市更乾淨、整潔的了。檢視一下漂亮的食品包裝、吸引人的貨架擺置、雜誌區、花卉區以及你喜歡的任何東西。如果你很開心，可以為你覺得特別的人買個氣球或買束花。
High School Football Games
高中的橄欖球賽
Check out a football game this fall for a combination of sports, music, community, and crisp fall temperatures ***perfect excuse for hot cocoa and snuggling!***. Imagine all of the working pieces that made this event possible: the football team, the band musicians, the volunteers at the concession stand, and the school’s staff. You’ll also have a perfect excuse to partake in some people-watching. Even if you’re not a football fan, you’ll enjoy the experience.
觀看今秋的橄欖球比賽，把體育、音樂、社群以及涼爽的天氣***喝熱可可及互相依偎的完美藉口***結合起來。想象一下讓這次活動發生所涉及到的工作人員：橄欖球隊的球員、樂隊的成員、貨攤上的志願者和學校的工作人員。 而且你還有完美的藉口去觀察人們。即便你不是球迷，你也會享受這種經歷。
15. Your Existence
你的存在
Would you say that your life has meaning? I can’t imagine you wouldn’t, so look for creativity in the most obvious place it could be: inside yourself. Every day is a tiny part of the grand story that is your life. Keep a journal and write without filter. Don’t be surprised when you look at your notebook later to discover inspiration staring you between the eyes.
你會說自己的人生有意義嗎?我無法想象你會說沒有，所以去最明顯的地方來尋找創造力吧：你的內心。每天都是你生命巨集大故事的一小部分。寫寫日記並不加篩選地記錄下來。當你不久之後看日記時，發現靈感正盯著你時就不必感到吃驚了。
