Creativity is just connecting things."
Steve Jobs
A few wisps of dream content hang in our mind as we awaken from a deep sleep. We find ourselves intrigued by the content, but by the time we get up, all has been forgotten. While listening to a podcast, an idea surfaces that we find to be quite exciting, but we soon lose track of it. Inspiration falls upon us, but we simply are not paying attention.
When we learn to take our ideas seriously and begin to link them together all kinds of sparks fly! Our thinking is challenged, curiosity heightens, and excitement builds. When we tone down our negative thinking and hype up imagination, things start coming together. Ideas align as we hold our vision quietly in thought.
Whether we are developing a lifetime investment or sketching a spring garden plot, the importance is moving forward, adding magic to the project. As excitement enters our life, we feel more alive, again. Purpose drives us and courage strengthens our sense of capabilities. There is no time like the present to begin connecting the dots.
