Our minds are conditioned, held, tethered to dogma, to belief, to experience, to knowledge. With this tethered mind, with this mind that is so conditioned, so heavily held, we meet life, which is in constant movement. Life, with its many complex and swiftly changing problems, is never still, and it requires a fresh approach every day, every minute.
... See moreInteresting view. The world moves. Life moves but the mind is static. Thats why we find it difficult to keep up unless we understand how the mind works.
Whether something is possible or impossible is not your business. Success and failure are ideas that will only serve as a burden to your quest. Rather than finding the thing that you can imagine yourself becoming, find the thing that you simply cannot imagine yourself Not Becoming.
What can i imagine myself not becoming?
Happiness is a chase and nothing more
There’s no dishonor in having a job. What is dishonorable is scaring away your creativity by demanding that it pay for your entire existence.
Most individuals have never had enough time, and they’ve never had enough resources, and they’ve never had enough support or patronage or reward . . . and yet still they persist in creating. They persist because they care. They persist because they are called to be makers, by any means necessary.
An empty white page is a mirror into your mind. When the ideas in your mind are clouded, so are the words on the page in front of you. Re-writing is re-thinking. It’s the best single best way to sharpen your ideas. And once your ideas are as clear as a Neiman Marcus mirror, you’ll be able to teach them to others.
Powerful. Writers block. Thoughts. Thinking
So look around at those existing ideas in the world. You can imitate them and still be offering something valuable and unique.
You can still be unique.
