Creative Potential - Use It or Lose It


Is it time to tap into your creative potential?
It’s there you know…inside you…waiting to be set free.

What’s one small way you might tap into your creative potential today? How might you give yourself permission to spend even just five or ten minutes experiencing some type of creative joy?
(Remember, whatever makes your heart sing and time fly, that’s your Creative Oasis!)

What if you create an empowered quote? The above combination of Robert Greenleaf’s words and mine is an example of an Empowered Quote. (Click here for more on how to create your own.)

What if you took a photo with your phone? (Click here foranother creative fun with your phone idea.) 

What if you wrote a haiku? (Click here for more haiku play.) 

What if you set a time for five minutes and colored in a mandala? 

Dr. Wayne Dyer says, 

“Don’t die with your music still inside you. Listen to your intuitive inner voice and find what passion stirs your soul. Listen to that inner voice, and don’t get to the end of your life and say, ‘What if my whole life has been wrong?’”

I love the basic meaning of his words, but since I’m a stickler for positive language and asking rather than telling, I say, 

“What might it feel like to set your inner music free? What if you asked your wise inner self what stirs passion in your soul? What if you listened to your intuitive inner voice as if it were the voice of an amazing creative expert (because it is!) and said Yes! to your passion? How wonderful would it be to get to the end of your life and say “My life has been a more wonderful, joyous experience for allowing myself to set my creative spirit free!”

If you like, use the above questions as journal prompts and see what comes up for you.
Better yet, if you'd like to share, please post what your wise inner voice shared with you in the comments section below. It's always so inspiring to hear what your wise inner voice has to allow.
