I Made This Just For You!

October 9, 2017 by linda

I don’t know about you but the many harsh and difficult events of this year were beginning to take a toll on me. The other morning I woke up keenly aware of the fragility of life. This wasn’t from watching the news and the daily reminders of how quickly life can end.

This was different.

I felt it in my cells.

The weight of the world was starting to crush me. I felt I had to come up with a guiding vision or fall prey to feelings of helplessness or worse, hopelessness.

What I came to is that I am standing on the side of the creators, not the destroyers.

In other words, I will put my energy towards creating in the world and not on those intent on destroying it.

I’ve always had a love / hate relationship with creativity.

Persistent, loud, critical inner voices and the belief that creativity was something you did AFTER you got all your work done consistently stopped me from doing what was in my heart to do. From art school to therapy to coaching, it’s been a very long road to recovering my creative confidence. Always two steps forward, one step back with an occasional detour along the way.

This inner battle caused me no end of suffering.

Finding that illusive inner peace has formed the foundation of all my work.

Imagine denying who you are at your very core.

Well, no longer.

Now I know that creativity is one, if not THE most valuable skills you can have in this lifetime.

You too may question your ability to be creative. You may have a creative project or idea that you can’t seem to get off the ground. You may let a number of obstacles stop you from creating what you want in your life or work. You may discount the importance creativity plays in your life.

Today, I’m declaring NOT ANY MORE!

Creativity is not just for artists. Your creative confidence is more important now than ever!

The ability to freely express yourself, to find your unique voice, to have fun making things, to solve problems, and to face this world of increasing uncertainty with confidence, these are some of the gifts that come from your creative intelligence.

Understanding how to access and use this intelligence in today’s world is one of the most empowering acts you can do for yourself. Liberating your creative expression brings a deep happiness that is unmatched by any poor substitute.

If you’re ready to truly express yourself, to bring your ideas out to the world, to access new resources and find new solutions, to embrace your creative powers while having fun…

If you’re ready to change your world…
