When Midnight Inspires Me
The inspirations I usually have at midnight are baffling, and most times, I just make the most use of them while they last. As a blogger, I don't thrive well in a noisy environment, no matter how little the noise is. I feel easily distracted, and writing a blog in that state is a no-no.
At times, when I am reading a blog with little noise from the background, I get lost; I may read a whole blog with nothing to comment on, and that's how severely I battle with noises around and concentration.
It's interesting to know that some people are not distracted by this same noise that deals with me. For instance, my sis living with me can comfortably read her book or write a post while my kids are making noise and jumping around the house. I don't know how she does that, but most times, I found her still focused while the noise was ongoing. It's unlike me; even if I am in my room and overhearing their noises in the living room, I will be cut off completely from whatever I am doing with my brain. I can only work better with no single noise at all.This is why I found myself developing most of the topics I write on Hive during the midnight hours.
The midnight is very calm, quiet, and noise-free. A kind of atmosphere that helps inspiration to flow within me without interruptions. I have up to five post drafts currently waiting for finishing touches, edits, and picture insertion. All of these posts were crafted during the midnight hour when none of my kids are awake to distract me or natural environmental noises to put me off the key. I love the atmosphere of calmness and don't fail to utilize it more often before continuing with my sleep.
This midnight inspiration is Not only about writing content on Hive, but also cutting across my interest in singing. I sing in my church, mostly worship songs. At midnight, I found myself connecting with deeper worship songs, and what I do whenever such inspiration embraces me is to put on a recording on my phone and begin to record as the songs flow. Then during the day, I will replay it, and when I need them in the church, the results become amazing.
The other times, I wrote about the lifestyle I adopted from my mom, which is praying at midnight always, and aside from that, crafting my posts and penning down songs at night are other activities I do during the midnight.
Overall, life is about finding out what works best for you; it's a win-win.

The serenity that comes with midnight atmosphere is always great for brainstorming, inspirations and meditation.
Everyone has what works better for them and you have found yours also so I believe it's better to utilise that avenue to get the best out of it.
Yea..the midnite serenity I encounter is usually heavenly and making most of it us not negotiable
Thanks for engaging

We are much alike there... I can't write in a noisy environment and there's no way I would concentrate reading or doing anything that involves my mental ability where there's noise.
Just that I find it a bit hard to shift my activities of writing or other things to midnight except I slept during the day unlike you
Yea..my mental ability struggles in a noisy environment ..even if I can't write at midnite sometimes, I use early hour of the day like 4 to 6am
That sounds cool too. Don't deny our prince and princess their innocent shouts oo abeg

STOPI remember a time I drafted 3 posts at midnight. The inspiration kept flowing that when I returned back to sleep, I was just giggling and smiling as if I found a treasure. You know that thrill feeling when you just wrote 3 fresh and different topics by just some random ideas that were just flowing in? It was amazing. So, yes, I can attest that midnight is always a cool time to get inspiration and ideas. I don’t succeed around noise, too. It makes me distracted.
I trust u to always grab those inspirations ...three post as a go ?
I have always learned to honour my best hours because, there is something magical about midnight, the quiet, the calm, the way thoughts move freely and the way you use it to write, to sing, to pray is really powerful and inspiring.
That's great, it's indeed about finding out what works for you and am glad you have and it's working the magic. I am also a night crawler
I find it difficult to survive in noisy environment.. assimilation becomes so difficult. I agree with you @temmylade it is good to honor your best time, you will have greater achievement likewise @wewarriors-28 focusing on what works for you is the key.
Thank you for sharing ma'am.
Noise can really drain focus and make it hard to think clearly but finding and protecting that quiet space truly makes a difference.
Absolutely!
You welcome🎉🎉
We are very much alike " I remembered back then in school the only time I can read and understand was in the night any attempt to read during the day is a waste of time and everyone should just be asleep or quiet and I have a friend that listen to songs while reading
We are been built differently
