Creativity is not governed by those who can paint a sunset, write a
novel or knit w fabulous sweater.We all have it.Yes even you.
But are we so afraid of looking foolish, being judged or ‘doing it wrong’ that we won’t even try.
Does this sound like you?
I, myself, will attempt to demonstrate who simply it really is..
(Please excuse my look-it’s casual Friday)
WHAT IS ‘PLAY’ TO YOU-IF YOU DON’T KNOW ,THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU ENJOYED A S A KIDDIE..
THEN DO IT.
Step 1-Play
Color, draw, cut, paste, make a teepee in the woods
Let your mind be free of judgment and notice what feels delightful!
Step 2-Find a place where you can create
Sometimes that’s hard, n’est pas?You need to be creative to solve that dilemma...Ideally it would be a space that your work would be undisturbed.But we all don’t have that. Coffee shops work for writing and drawing… not for painting and crafts.
Even one corner of the kitchen table will do…
Step 3.Open your eyes and ears
What a beautiful world we live in…inspiration is everywhere!
And the best part?
Inspiration is a truly personal outlook.
Nothing is too big, small beautiful or ugly to be inspirational
Cat licking his paw? Pasta boiling over on the stove? Get in the habit of seeing the ‘art’ in everything
Step 4 Keep growing
This too is a personal choice…boiled down it simply means-don’t get stuck in your life.
Are you stuck?
Be honest.
Listen to a new piece of music, learn a new word, drive a new route to work
Experience life!
Step 5. Expand your mind
There are zillions of options for continued education- online, library, courses and workshops, community college.
Even if you despised school you can find ways to learning something new…and enjoy it.
Explore additional learning options to keep fresh!
