“One after another the greatest writers, poets, and artists confirm the fact that their work comes to them from beyond the threshold of consciousness.” Percy Bysshe Shelley
Creatives can we talk?
Your gifts are about so much more than you. They are bigger than you. And, that’s why sometimes you feel so much struggle and pain when you are birthing your greatest works.
Our gifts and creativity can inspire millions of people. But our creativity also serves as a stretching point for us. Am I right??
As we are absorbed into the work of creating we are experiencing higher states of consciousness. Our focus becomes sharpened. And, our true selves emerge.
You are never more “you” than you are when you’re creating. When you are in a creative state all the fluff and layers that others have placed on you in order to make you more interpretable (is that a word? If not I just created it) fall away. It is in that place where your authenticity and truth can be better seen and the truth of who you are can be better seen.
All my life I have felt like an observer rather than a participant when it comes to life. I’ve always felt either misunderstood or overlooked. I don’t feel like I fit. I’m too woo woo for practical people. I’m too practical for woo woo people. I’m passionate but reserved. I’m verbose but I measure my words. I adore change and evolution but feel like I’m going no where.
As I ponder over the disconnects I feel it becomes more obvious that I feel most at home and grounded when I’m creating. Can you relate? Discovering this and experiencing the higher states of consciousness feels good. I want to live there.
While that’s not entirely possible I am at least inspired to challenge myself to find and focus on the unanticipated moments of life that reveal themselves as creative opportunities.
No longer do I think, “wow, I really enjoyed connecting with this person after my marketing meeting.” I now am able to recognize the moment of synchronistic and synergistic connection. And, because of that in that moment and afterwards I think, “what higher purpose did this connection serve?” It’s more than just mere enjoyment of smooth and lively conversation. These moments…are portals for greater levels. Greater levels for business, higher levels for health, increased opportunities for growth and creation of all the things you need and want in order to live out a fully expressed purpose for your time on this planet. I believe if you can recognize these moments you can capitalize on them and essentially make quantum leaps into fulfilling your wildest dreams and highest purpose.
I hope that as a creative person you will take the time to get still. I hope you will begin to see your gifts as portals to power that can serve all of humanity.
Creative states are literally next dimension living.
