Creativity Cookies: Positivity Perk-Up!

[Dan Goodwin]

Sometimes what stops us being more creative is not our natural abilities, the materials we have, the time we make available or the ideas we gather.

Even if we have ALL of these elements in place, if we don't feel positive and enthused about creating — and about ourselves — it's going to be an uphill struggle.

So this Creativity Cookie is called Positivity Perk-Up and will help you realise just how much you can be positive about in your creative life.

Head over to Creativity-Portal right away to get the full cookie, try it for yourself, then pop back here and share your thoughts and experiences with us here in this discussion...

Hi people, I must make my positive perk-up inventory within the next few days...until then I must tell you all what I discovered yesterday, as I became aware of my negative thoughts and worries.

I visualized these negative thoughts as darts in my head and mentally, imagined pulling those darts out of my head or shielding my head with my arms to keep them from hitting their target.

There are many darts that I am still trying to pick off my scalp or trying to dodge! But this awareness and visualization is helping me to see how useless and untrue these hurtful thoughts are!

Releasing the darts helps me to see the "perk-ups" more easily!

Good, Camille ... just becoming aware of them as separate thoughts that do not have to have an effect is great! Now you can interact with them and write them down or have a conversation with the "critical dart launcher" who keeps sending them to you and say thanks for your concern ... but I have much better things to do :)

Hugs!

[Camille]

Yes, Barb, thank you! Having conversations with them is a great idea....! Maybe we could post the conversations we have with our darts, and become the supreme "Artful Dodgers"!b> : )

May you have many creative conversations with your darts also!
(Unless you have already conquered them all???)

Hugs from Camille
