Tapping into Your Creativity


Tapping Into Your Creativity

I have often wondered why most companies have a creative
department with a limited number of people, usually a very
small percentage of the people which are on the payroll.

Every department in a company is a creative department as
long as the department has people in it. All people are
creative. Creativity has its root in the creator which is
within each of us. As you permit the higher side of your
nature to express itself in a greater way for good in your
life, you are being creative.

There are an enormous number of people who deprive
themselves of many of the joys life offers because they
believe they are not creative.

"Musicians are creative, writers, artists and designers are
creative but I'm not."

You should realize there are creative auto-mechanics,
carpenters, secretaries and warehouse people. There are
lawyers, accountants and dentists who are creative.

Creativity has absolutely nothing to do with what you do but
it has everything to do with how you do it. William James
said, "Creativity is the ability to think in unhabitual
ways."

Pay particular attention today to the various people you
come in contact with. Observe closely how these people apply
themselves to their jobs.

Some will be an absolute symphony in every move they make.
It will be obvious they have given creative thought to their
work while others move in a very mechanical way. If they are
asked to do anything which may be out of the norm you may
very well hear the reply, "I'm sorry, that is not my job."
There are definite self-imposed limitations to their
activity.

They have never learned that they are a truly dynamic being
with limitless creative potential in every fiber of their
being. Nor have they learned that this creative potential is
awaiting recognition from them.

You have the opportunity to express your creativity staring
you in the face every minute. If you haven't begun to
express it, do so today.

Here's a positive affirmation you may wish to write down and
recite to yourself...

"Each day I am allowing my creativity to flow -- bringing
forth ideas that I can put into play which will lead me in a
positive direction on the path towards achieving my given
endeavors.

I take special care not to suppress my creativity, and act
on opportunities that present themselves to allow my
creative side to shine through in my daily life. In doing so
I am allowing myself to grow for the betterment of all
involved."

I couldn't agree with you more! I see creative people in supposedly non-creative positions all the time. They are going about maximizing their abilities in their chosen field, thinking of the best way to do what they do. Good post!!

I used to think of myself as one of those "not creative" people, but I have come to realize that it's more about not wanting to try new creative things, and not measuring up to some self-imposed standard quickly enough. "I did the "wet-on-wet" painting technique, for example, (and had a good time doing it), but I didn't replace the paints when they ran out because the product wasn't "profession" looking. Anyway, very inspiring post, thanks.
