Unleash the Creativeness within YOU!

I get many people say to me; '...But, I'm not creative like you!'

And you know what I would say to those I think are the 'real creative' people - yep you guessed it, I would say; '...But, I'm not creative like you!'

So my question is, how do YOU define creativity? What does creativity mean to you?

I think we all have a different definition of creativity.

My creativeness may not be to the standard of someone with a creativity degree however I love all things creative. I love having the freedom of dreaming up dreams and ideas.

I think that many times in life - and usually it goes back to childhood - we get put down by those whom we look up to for support and if they say something negative we stop and don't try again. Then we get into the 'stuck-mode' where before we even try we say 'I can't!'.

And I always say that as soon as we say 'I Can't!' we build an invisible wall around us and nothing can break it expect our own thought pattern.

Creativity is what it is to you - even if that means re-arranging the home furniture - now that is creative. How? Well, simply put you thought of the concept, the idea in your head and how it should look and then you went ahead and re-arranged the room according to that.

Simple.

And you know something, real and true creative souls won't judge your creativity or put you down - they will in fact encourage you and appreciate your unique talent.

Creativity is just that - unique to each one of us.

As a creative mentor and coach I ask my clients to give themselves permission to dream dreams and see how they want it to be. Then put it on to the paper and play with it. Grab some crayons and colour away.

I believe everyone is creative in one way or another. You are reading this and I know that you have creativity in you. This could be in the form of drawings, writings, paintings, decorating, heck just doing whatever YOU believe and feel is creative for you.

Today why not explore your inner creativeness. Give yourself permission to let your creative juices flow. Just be you. I believe in you. Try it and see the awesome difference it makes in your life. Unleash the creativeness within YOU!

Let me know what creativity inspires and motivates you or what your definition of creativity is. :)
