What does it take to be creative? It's common to hear people
say "I'm not the creative type", yet our brains are designed to
come up with ideas all the time. Coming up with ideas is easy but
converting those ideas into reality is a lot more difficult! In
this episode, Pete discusses why it is productivity, not
creativity, which is essential for living the inspired life and
provides simple tools to being more productive.
Pete describes creativity as 'the art of seeing something' and
explains how once you can see something, it then exists in a
'thought world'. To bring ideas into a 'physical world' requires a
great deal of courage - otherwise described as investing emotional
energy into an idea to make it materialise. Pete explains the
relationship between courage and commitment and shares 3 key rules
for how to recommit to your goals daily.
Want to become more creative? Try following these rules!
- Write ideas down! The brain is terrible at holding
onto ideas for extended periods of time
- Try drawing rather than writing! What does your
current and desired realities look like?
- Decide on 3 bold steps - what can you do today to
move towards your desired reality?
Remember - shifting to your desired reality requires a mastery
over the mundane! Even an 'overnight success' often takes more than
10 years!
