Learning to be a More Creative Person

Highlights and Sound Bites
That teach and talk about creativity

Supporting Your Creative Soul

Maybe you had a prim school teacher ... or a stern, old-fashioned grandmother ... who told you "Anything worth doing is worth doing well." Well, yes, that's true ... once you know how to do something well. Once you have the skills, and the discipline, and the pride in your own creation to do something really well. That's one of creativity's aims, after all, to produce something outstanding.

But your creativity is a "work in progress" ... and always will be. You will always be working to improve, strengthen, develop, learn, discover or invent elements of your creative life and perspective. That's what a creative person does. In fact, that's your real job as a creator. The things you create are just the areas where you practice your skills. The product that results demonstrate how well (or not) your creative skills have brought your vision into reality. To a true artist, the failures can be even more instructive than the successes -- although I admit they're not nearly as much fun.

Resting ... versus Being Stuck

There's an important difference between "being stuck" and "needing to rest." Objectively, the inactivity may be the same ... but the feeling is very different. We need to rest when we've been hard at work long enough to feel the strain and exhaustion. We need to rest when we've finished a major project ... and aren't quite ready to start anything new.

There Are Important Differences in Left Brain and Right Brain Creativity

Drawing On Creativity

You see, the left side of the brain excels at verbal, analytical, rational and logical tasks. It's the dominant half. It takes over most of the time, using words to describe and define, figuring things out step by step, drawing conclusions based on facts and logic, and thinking in a linear way. The left side of the brain jumps right in with words and symbols, and is such a bully that it takes on even those tasks it isn't likely to perform well.

Now, the right side of the brain is completely different. It relies on nonverbal cues to process perceptions. It's good at tasks requiring the ability to see similarities, to understand how parts fit together as a whole, to make leaps of insight (those a-ha moments), and to perceive overall patterns at once. It tends to hang back a little, letting the left side take over most duties.

Dealing with Writer's Block and Artist's Block

Overcoming Artist's Block
Part 1

How many times does an artist stare down at that blank piece of paper thinking "What on earth do I paint - Where do I put my first mark?" More often than you would imagine! It happens to all creative people actually, from visual artists, designers, poets, through to musicians and writers.

Part 2

Once you are ready to start working again you will know it instinctively. All artists go through periods of 'creative block' - it's normal, but after one such episode there are ways of stimulating ideas and getting the creative juices flowing again.

Coping with Criticism and Rejection ...

Mindsets that Maintain Creativity

Mindfulness and Creativity

You are so creative. Don't deny it. Whether or not you consider yourself a creative type, the truth is that you are constantly creating ideas. Mindfulness invites you to be aware of this constantly flowing river, and offers an opportunity to choose to sit beside it instead of swimming in it. By watching the ideas from that calm riverbank, you can more clearly see the ones that float to the top and sparkle in the sun.

Creative Inspiration

Connect With Your Creative Dream

We get so busy in our day-to-day life, with all the doing and actions and daily chores, that we can quickly lose sight of the BIG PICTURE. What's it all for? What are you working towards? If you don't know where you're going, how will you know when you get there?

Emotions Caused by Music are Intelligent Emotions

Desperate because homeless people were camping out in a New York bus station, proprietors played opera music. It worked like a charm. It also worked when a California convenience store piped opera in their parking lot to drive drug-dealers away. I find this amazing since I just paid $200 to hear an opera.
