If you could spend 30 minutes today creating whatever you want, what would you create?

If I could spend 30 minutes today creating anything I want, I would:
Start a new blog post on a topic I’m passionate about (EN/SE).

I have several activities that I do regularly so this is an easy question to tackle (see the Top 15). Some are still just ideas of what I’d like to create. Below is the list of stuff I would create given the 30 minutes (one of them is already the answer to the above question):

• Create a vision board or inspiration board for a future project

• Create a mood board for a future project or event

• Write a short story or poem

• Create a new playlist of favorite songs or discover new music

• Make a list of goals or intentions for the upcoming week, month, or year

• Experiment with a new photography technique or style

• Practice a new musical instrument or learn a new song

• Do a quick sketch or painting of a favorite landscape or object

• Start a new blog post on a topic I’m passionate about (EN/SE)

• Create a PowerPoint presentation summarizing key learnings from a book I read

• Write a Swedish essay (e.g., referat)

• Create a personal library catalog

• Create a gratitude journal entry

• Practice mindfulness or meditation

• Write a personal reflection journal entry

• Create a series of photo galleries on my blog

• Design a new website layout for my blog or online shop
