How to Unleash Your Creative Instincts

“A business has to be involving, it has to be fun, and it has to exercise your creative instincts.” ~ Richard Branson

Yes indeed! If you don’t love what you are doing, just don’t do it anymore. When your business becomes fun, it no longer presents itself as work but you earn money all the same. Doing what you love doing and you are having fun doing gets you ahead very quickly to the astonishment of onlookers. When your business is involving and it is fun, all your creative energies get unleashed without too much effort. You do better and achieve more doing what you love to do thereby succeeding faster and better. According to Wayne Dyer, "There's no scarcity of opportunity to make a living at what you love. There is only a scarcity of resolve to make it happen."

Many ordinary folks do like to try their hands at doing things but many are always afraid of failure. Don't be afraid to fail. It's OK to fail. If you're not failing, you're not growing. Don't waste energy trying to cover up failure. It is fruitless doing so. What matters is to learn from your failures and go on to the next challenge. If you love what you do and you do it with fun, things flow along smoothly whether you are failing or succeeding matters very little. As Richard M. DeVos likes to say, "The only thing that stands between a man and what he wants from life is often merely the will to try it and the faith to believe that it is possible." And with faith, all things are possible.

How to Make Things Happen Your Way

“If you don’t make things happen then things will happen to you.” ~ Robert Collier

If you don’t make things happen, nobody will, for you. It is entirely up to you, what you do, how you do it and how you make use of your precious time. As the Spanish say, carpe diem, seize the day and do something with it. It is up to you. When opportunities come your way and you fail or neglect to seize them, they pass you by. Sometime somewhere down the road, you get to remember these lost opportunities. That’s when things start happening to you, all bordering on regrets. Don’t let that happen to you. Be the master of your own fate and the chief determinant of how life turns out for you. Think about it!

Time is extremely precious, believe me. Even at that, just like everybody else, it is available to you free everyday to do what you like with. The controls are in your hands. It is almost like holding a horse’s reins. When they are in your hands, you can control them. Just imagine this. Everyday it’s like you are born again. You realize that yesterday is a cancelled cheque. Tomorrow is only a promissory note. But today is ready cash – you’ve got to use it profitably. Live this moment; live it fully, now, in the present time. Now is your time.
