Creativity is often thought to be the result of inspiration and inquiries. And while it’s good to ask questions, eliminating one question from your vocabulary will unlock your creative capability. For more access to trainings join us: https://go.mindvalley.com/6bUre4Tp
We think of creativity as some kind switch that unpredictably turns on to light the bulb in your brain, sending you a new idea — perhaps for a painting, a song, a book, the perfect response, or an invention.
But creativity is actually unlimited, regardless of age, genetics, socio-economic status, etc. We all have the ability to express ourselves creatively — because our experience is uniquely ours.
The biggest damper on your creativity is... The question “HOW?”
How will I write that book? How will I make that song? How will I find the right words to say?
When you ask “how?”, you look at the past and old patterns of thought — how others have done what you want to do, or how you may have done something in the past. Asking “how?” completely blinds your unlimited creativity and cuts off your ability to just be creative.
When you ask “how,” you’ll see that there have been 92 million songs written, and completely overlook the fact that there are infinite songs that haven’t been written.
There is no difference between you and the greatest minds of human history, except for the fact that they showed up, let the creativity FLOW, and put in the time to become who they wanted to be.
Kyle Cease talks more about the mindset of creative people — which boils down to letting go of attachment to expectation and genuinely expressing yourself in all aspects.
