CREATIVITY Mala necklace

We often associate creativity only with being artistic or producing something extraordinary à la Salvador Dali that will end up hanging at some fashionable art gallery. Yet, creativity is something that we all are good at, no matter which brain – left or right – dominates our thinking. Creativity in this larger sense means,  in fact, being brave, taking risks, doing unexpected, the bizarre and the surprising. Worrying about the past or future failures and falling into the inactivity trap as a result are the things in which we all occasionally excel, yet these things are also great traps for creativity, because thanks to all these blocks and worries, the creativity gets hindered and the manifestation process gets stifled without any chance of producing the desired outcome.

So what to do, in order to break away from these blockages? Sometimes you might simply need to change your mindset – try standing on your head, walking backwards, playing with your problems and thinking outside of the box. Being an optimist that is always ready to be surprised, you will soon see that the problem is no longer a problem but rather a challenge and that the challenge has miraculously become an opportunity.
