Are You Damning Your Creative Energy?
Every person is born with an ocean of creativity…limitless possibilities beyond your wildest dreams! It could be in the traditional Arts or it may be as simple as a talent for kindness or love. Or a talent for speaking, writing, teaching, persuasion, research or anything else!
You know your talent – you’re familiar with it. It speaks to you in whispers…in your dreams of the future…in your play as a child – before inhibitions and repressions were imposed upon you by others. All the can’ts, don’ts, shoulds, mustn’ts – now embedded in your Mind.
The most terrible thing that can happen in your life is to never develop this talent. To allow your surface ego to be in control so as to smother any attempt of this talent to surface…acting as a dam to prevent the flow of your creative ability.
You can break this dam and realize the highest livel of your creative talent…it IS in your power! The only barriers to your accomplishment are in your Mind…the fears that constantly talk you out of trying. To break the dam you must be willing to tackle your fears head-on…to realize fear is just an illusion created by ego to prevent Change!
I will not tell you it is easy…it takes true courage to move ahead, ignore what others say and do somehing even though you are afraid. Overcoming and eliminating Fear, anxiety and hostility is not easy – but it is impossible if you allow the reason and emotion created by your mind into ‘limiting beliefs’ to control your decisions.
You must be willing to take a risk, break out of your old habits and believe the Universe and your Spirit will inspire, direct and support your efforts.
Any obstacles, opposition, and difficult people are the sign posts along your way of some fear or lack of understanding within your Self – not in the external world. Acknowledge to yourself that you are missing a piece of the puzzle and search for understanding within your Spirit…your Self. I promise that when you take that courageous step forward, you will be amazed how inconsequential and illusionary that Fear really was. Then you will kick your self and wonder why you had not done it sooner!!
Are You “damning” your creative energy – preventing it from breaking through and flowing freely from the ocean of your inspiration?
I was inspired to write this post after reading a book by U.S. Anderson titled, The Magic in Your Mind
