Inspiration for Creatives
As inspiration strikes is a phrase that embodies the meaning of this site.
That ideas and inspration can strike you at any time is a well known fact.
You may be in the shower or mindlessly waiting for the light to go green, and that’s when you get a brilliant idea.
This is the time to reach for your Pendragon ideas book.
Are you Creative?
Yes, I believe you are creative, as every human is.
Look what we have achieved in this world.
Everything that has been made on earth was by someone being creative.
Now, perhaps you won’t design a spaceship or a cure for cancer, but you are creative and you can tap into this natural way of being.
Children are naturally creative, give them a plain sheet of paper and some crayons and off they go.
Adults, not so much.
Why?
Programmmed Minds
Typically we are programmed by our family, friends and society to behave in a certain way.
We get an education, find a mate, get married and raise a family, whilst working at a mind numbing nine-to-five job that drains the life out of us.
Sounds familiar?
Break Out Ideas
Eventually many people dry up, curl up and give up.
They become a shadow of their former selves.
You know people like this don’t you?
Yes, we all do.
You may even be one yourself.
What to Do
Seeing your life for what it rally is is the first step.
Who you are today is the result of past activities and decisions you made.
You cannot change the past and live life in the rear-view mirror.
What has gone has gone.
Time for a change.
You can dig deep into yourself and find the spark you had as a younger person.
Remember, as the song goes “When you wore a younger man’s clothes?”
Ideabooks
This is the role of Pendragon ideabooks.
Ideabooks are not filled with ideas ready made for you, but they are open, waiting with bated breath, to see what you come up with.
The pages are crying out to be scribed upon and capture your brilliant insights, ideas and plans.
What are You Waiting For?
If you are waiting for someone to give you permission to get creative, then here it is.
I give you permission to be your true self, to confidently express all your ideas and to write down the bare bones of a scheme to be fleshed out and polished later.
You are still at the conception stage and things now are touch and go.
Will you capture your thoughts to clear your cluttered mind for fresh ideas?
Will you carry an ideasbook near to you at all times so you get used to writing down keyworkds or a quick sketch of your master plan?
Is such a small thing likely to make you feel better?
To all the above I say yes, yes, yes.
What are you waiting for?
