It is well known that challenges give opportunity for self manifestation. Sports, tribal games, ceremonial traditions, and even warfare have taught us this for centuries. The biggest challenge we face and which all those previously mentioned have in common is life. The challenge of life particularly for me was my desire and willingness I had to express ideas, thoughts, logic, concepts, etc..., and how I would do so. My previous post, Discovering Skills and Qualities to Reassure Self-Esteem was a direct result of me finding affirmation in my ability to self-express. I will now share the underlying secret to my [discovery] success. It is the mental capacity to approach a challenge strategically different, manifesting something recognizable to the 5 senses that is distinctive. Creativity illuminates your voice to be heard. It brings forth innovative ideas and solutions. To be creative causes stimulation of the mind; entertaining our conscious and sub-conscious. There are many ways to express your creativity. The phrase "think outside of the box" is creative, but usually referred to when there is an obstacle, a need for more creativity, or to simply inspire creativity.
Of course there are other factors to consider like discipline, dedication, determination, and sacrifice, but the uniqueness of your creativity can be used as a vehicle on the road to your success. It is no wonder why the study of Liberal Arts at one period of time was only accessible to those who would have an opportunity for citizenship or those thought would become influential productive members of society. According to history this was called freedom or to be free. From conception, graduating top of any scholastic class, companionship, obtaining employment positions, to our social economic status; are major areas of life we compete for. It is being creative in how you pursue your goals and in how you fulfill self-expressing passions in life, which leads to contentment and satisfaction. Sharing the process brings the best out of those around you.
