I find a lot of inspiration in nature. The beauty of landscapes, the diversity of animals, and the details of plants make me feel amazed and creative. Watching how things like trees, flowers, and the sky change and interact helps me see the world in new ways and motivates me to tackle challenges with a fresh outlook.
