You ARE a Creative, Artist or Otherwise

April 9, 2024

Creativity in every form empowers. The truth is that not everyone is an artist. Some people don’t have the spark or find joy in painting, writing, sculpting, acting, singing, woodworking, or any other creative endeavor you can imagine. That doesn’t mean, however, that non-artists aren’t creatives. The truth is that everyone is a creative. Some forms of creativity and making are so mundane, overlooked, or taken for granted that people are denied or deny themselves

Your Writing Isn’t For Everyone

April 2, 2024

This is as true for me as it is for you. What genres of books do you read? Let’s start with the big picture, fiction versus nonfiction. If you’re anything like me, you read several different types of both. In my case, my nonfiction choices are pretty diverse. Mindfulness, wealth management, psychology, physics, philosophy, self-improvement, and more are in my libraries (digital and physical). When it comes to fiction, depending on the source you choose

What exactly is The Void or The Flow State?

How Does “The Void” or “The Flow State” and Creativity Empower?

March 26, 2024

Tapping into this place between the subconscious and conscious mind is amazing. The Void or The Flow State are references to that place outside of time and space where you simply are. They’re the ultimate expression of the here and now — the present moment. In the flow, you ride along aware and unaware at the same time. It’s an amazing disconnect where super cool things happen. For me, there are two specific instances I

With Another “The End” In Sight, What Do I Do Next?

March 19, 2024

This is always an interesting position to be in. Writing is, on the one hand, simple. Sit at the keyboard, let the ideas flow, and get the words on the screen. On the other hand, there’s often quite the process involved. This essay, for example, is being written by the seat of my pants. This means I’m writing as a pantser.

Write and Art On, My Crazy Friends

March 12, 2024

Do your writing, do your art, and be a creative force in a mad mad mad world. Whether you’re a professional or a hobbyist, the best thing that you can do for yourself, and for the world, is your art. Artistic expression is a powerful tool that can inspire and empower like nothing else in the world. Creativity expresses itself in art. Spend any amount of time watching the news or perusing social media, and

Artistic Creators Don’t Need to be Understood by Other People

March 5, 2024

Does anyone truly understand anyone else? Everyone is creative in their own way. Creativity is tied to curiosity, and while it’s not always artistic, per se, it’s there. Everyone everywhere has creative abilities within them. This takes all sorts of forms. Some involve creating order, and those people are analysts, scientists, project managers, and the like. Their creativity involves making sense of things, ordering chaos, and other seemingly mundane things that not everyone has the
