FIGHTING CREATIVE RESISTANCE

Getting
through your natural resistance to let go is an accomplishment. We
are often at our creative best when we let go but it's so very
difficult, sometimes it can only be done a little at a time. That's
why you need to train, nurturing the creative side to come forth once
again can be slow. Many times it can come through in a rush and that
is pure fun! The
resistance can be in the conscious and the unconscious and very
powerful, however make no doubt about it, they can both be conquered
and then commanded to work for you. Resistance is like a big clog in
right smack in the middle of your personal fun center of your soul
that you were endowed with at birth. The
problem is most of us have spent a lifetime stifling our creativity.
As children we were ordered to be quiet and behave and sit still and
color between the lines and and etc etc etc If
you want to be a creative person simply put, you have to allow
yourself to be willing to become the child again that misbehaves. Get
in touch with that brat that made a little noise and created a ruckus
once in a while and danced for no reason and with no music, and and
etc etc. Start
by doing things to make yourself laugh privately. You don't always
have to have an audience. Funny sounds, sing silly songs, try doing
different voices for no reason. First thing in the morning do
something creative. Get out of bed and write or paint or just rant
about something out loud and get an audio recording of it. You'll
find each time your artist side will come forth more and more. Feed
your brain funny images and words. In other words if you wanna be a
better writer, READ. Take in some art for art sake. Seize
every opportunity to expand your thinking and fun parameters. It all
helps coach your child artist to live again and thrive on the
creative side! Break some rules of logic, make new observations and
capture them. Investigate yourself, relearn some things about you as
an artist. And
most importantly LIVE again daily as a playful human being, become
reborn to excitement, new perspectives and the pure adrenaline of
trying new things. Want
your writing to improve and enjoy performing?? Let
go and allow your artist child live again. He/She
knows what to do. Let them! |
