Here's how you can unleash your creative potential.

I believe in change. However, we have to clarify an essential aspect of it. Change is good and innovative when starts from us or when us are a contributor of it. If "us" are subjected to change or have to cop with change, than the change will be perceived as negative (and here begin the resistance to change). Therefore, if you are a leader remember to include all stakeholders in the "change journey". If you are a team member, remember to voice, to raise the hand and claim to be part of it. Once this process is healthy we can contribute to nurture a culture of change, curiosity, questioning and therefore, of learning. We cannot forget that asking questions is a clear demonstration of an intention to learn, and indeed, to change.

"The important thing is not to stop questioning." - Albert Einstein ?? Cultivate curiosity to fuel creativity. Ask questions, seek new experiences, and challenge the status quo. Embrace the "what if?" mindset to unlock innovative ideas. How do you keep your curiosity alive? Share your thoughts below! ??

Nunca se conforme... sempre há algo que pode ser melhorado, seja no seu próprio padr?o, seja por novos negócios, processos e tecnologias disruptivas... Estabele?a um padr?o consistente, mas o reavalie ciclicamente. Mude até ser eficaz na gera??o de valor. E para pensar fora da caixa... gosto de deixar na minha mesa de trabalho pe?as que envolvam arte, música e brincadeira... hoje tenho uma borracha em formato de dado, um pote em formato de lampada para guardar minhas canetas bem coloridas e palhetas de viol?o!! :)

In the ever-evolving industry landscape, creativity is your greatest asset. To tap into your creative potential, start by cultivating curiosity. Think of curiosity as the fuel for innovation. By asking questions about your industry, exploring new trends, and challenging conventional methods, you open doors to fresh ideas and solutions. Imagine the breakthroughs you can achieve by simply staying curious about your work and the world around you. Embrace new experiences, engage with different perspectives, and push boundaries. Your curiosity will not only drive personal growth but also spark the creative insights needed to propel your industry forward.

Aceitar a própria vulnerabilidade é um ato de coragem. Pois só assim podemos evoluir e buscar supera??o. N?o é errado fracassar, n?o é errado n?o conseguir uma meta. Errado é estagnar ou desistir por n?o ter alcan?ado. Pessoas de Sucesso enxergam as falhas como OPORTUNIDADES e transformam uma situa??o ruim em algo que te fa?a um PROFISSIONAL MAIS PREPARADO NO FUTURO. Olhe pra frente! Siga firme. Falhar é humano. Falhar e superar é o que transforma pessoas comuns em VENCEDORES.

Every person in their life has to deal with failure. The biggest challenge is we all are trained to celebrate success, but when it comes to failure very few people are fortunate enough to know what exactly we should do if we fail. The best way to deal with failure is to acknowledge the shortcomings and to accept failure is the first step to success.

Embracing failure is essential for unlocking creativity. Each mistake provides valuable insights, turning errors into growth opportunities. Viewing failures as integral to progress builds resilience and a willingness to take risks. Recognising that many innovations stem from iterative failures encourages a more experimental approach. This mindset drives you towards breakthroughs and enhances your understanding of your craft, leading to more refined and impactful outcomes. By accepting failure as part of the journey, you empower yourself to explore uncharted territories with confidence.

Learning is a process. Sometimes you try something and it doesn’t work. That failure is actually a learning point to reflect on. The culture we live in today doesn’t I believe accept this simple truth. We are not perfect, we will get it wrong. Deal with that and move on. My own PhD was a trail and error journey that I learned a lot in. Failure can be a good thing!

Creating the most suitable space for creativity is vastly relative to each individual. Some people will find inspiration (a competitive edge, a deep drive to stand out in the world) by feasting the eyes on the works of others; whereas others will find it most suitable to be in a fairly empty space so the mind can quiet down. This (the latter) is likely optimal for the purest form of inspiration which comes not from without, but from within. A meditative or trance-like state is optimum, so we might keep our favorite elixirs on hand and aim more to set a "mood" than a visual atmosphere.

Curating an inspiring environment is crucial for creativity. Whether it's a tranquil physical setting or mental and emotional freedom, your space should encourage exploration without judgment. Minimising distractions is vital in allowing ideas to flow. Surround yourself with elements that stimulate your imagination—art, music, or specific scents. Regularly dedicate time to retreat into this space, allowing your mind to wander and connect disparate thoughts. Cultivating a supportive environment enables deeper reflection and innovation, ultimately leading to more profound and original creative achievements.

Have a space to enjoy one of your favorite hobbies, maybe a hobby that helps you learn and grow, without distraction. The combination of learning and enjoyment tends to increase your creativity.

- Designate a Creative Zone: Set up a space where you feel inspired and free to create. - Schedule Thinking Time: Allocate regular time for brainstorming and idea generation. - Reduce Clutter: Keep your environment tidy to minimize distractions and enhance focus

When I think of creating space, I think about how I can expand the spaciousness within my self and my mind. For me, this means times of silence (no music, no background noise) and also times of practicing meditation. Meditation always leaves me feeling open and with lots of space "around me". My ideas seem to flow easier and are more varied. It's like I closed the door to the noisy room in my mind, and can actually think without interruption.

In my recent read, "The Greatest Mind" by Lewis Howes, rituals are emphasized as essential components for achieving peak mental performance and creativity. Howes advocates for the creation of personal rituals that help signal the brain to transition into a state of creativity and focus. These rituals, whether they involve morning journaling, physical exercise, or mindfulness practices, serve as anchors that ground the mind and prepare it for productive work. By consistently adhering to these rituals, individuals can cultivate a disciplined approach to their creative processes, making it easier to access and harness their creative potential.

There's an immense amount of science behind meditation's effects on the brain and opening up the creative self. The most influential people know the importance of entering into a relaxed state to recharge their creative minds. Choose times during your day to relax and go within.

Establishing rituals is crucial for nurturing creativity. Crafting a routine that signals your brain it's time to be creative can help you easily enter the right mindset. Whether it's morning pages, a brisk walk, or meditation, find what works for you and make it a non-negotiable part of your day. Consistency in these rituals trains your brain to transition into creative mode effortlessly. These practices become ingrained, providing structure and stability amidst the unpredictability of the creative journey and unlocking your full creative potential.

Ask yourself before execution is this the only way & the best way, is this effective and with the ever changing world I believe more often you will get an opportunity to innovate and it will continue with you thriving your curiosity to create the extra ordinary

The reason why so many artists and writers are nocturnal is because these are the hours in which the environment is dark and quiet, and one can easily maintain alpha waves and right-lobe activities without the distractions of day. Thus, rituals for creativity are best past the blue hour, or shortly after awakening in the early dark hours (no caffeine; perhaps some kava tea or other relaxers, maybe some quiet classical music or solfeggio frequencies, maybe some mystical incense). Some people deliberately awaken around 2 a.m. and remain awake for a few hours. Franz Kafka and other famous writers and artists were known for staying up very late or making the most of insomnia, finding this favorable for their creative pursuits.

There is inspiration from without and inspiration from within. Either way, it cannot flow unless the mind is receptive enough to receive it. This is why meditation and prayer are effective for inspiration-seekers just before sleep. At this time, we request of consciousness to supply us with something that will be to our benefit and fuel our pursuits (and we request to remember it!). If we ask deeply and sincerely, we can be amazed at how the depths of mind will supply us with whatever we need. It might not be what we expected, but it will always be to our benefit. The more grateful we are for these gifts from the subconscious, the more we will receive.

Every morning, I empty using meditation and fill using visualization. When I need an outside tool, I will listen to personal growth and development affirmations. I have an app called Innercise and I listen to one of the positive messages on the app to invest into my positive mindset and launch me forward.

Seeking inspiration is a deliberate practice that fuels creativity. By actively immersing yourself in art, nature, music, or literature, you open doors to new perspectives and ideas. Exposure to diverse experiences enriches your creative reservoir, sparking innovative thinking. Keeping an open mind allows you to draw connections between seemingly unrelated concepts, encouraging unique insights. Embrace serendipity in everyday encounters; sometimes, unexpected sources can ignite profound creativity. Cultivating a receptive mindset ensures that inspiration becomes a constant companion on your creative journey, empowering you to transform ordinary moments into extraordinary creations.

Seeking inspiration can be an ongoing process that involves exploring new ideas, environments, and perspectives. Here are some tips to help you find inspiration: 1. Change Your Environment Sometimes, a new setting can spark creativity. Try working from a different location, taking a walk in nature, or simply rearranging your workspace. 2. Read Widely Read books, articles, and blogs on a variety of topics. Exploring different subjects can provide new insights and ideas. 3. **Engage with Art**: Visit museums, galleries, or explore art online. Art can provide a fresh perspective and stimulate creative thinking. 4. Listen to Music: Music can influence your mood and open up new avenues of thought.

Buscar la inspiración cuando realice una actividad qué te haga sentir bien, cómo por ejemplo después de hacer ejercicio físico. En mí caso personal me funciona después de hacer una actividad física intensa con los amigos jugando en un deporte de equipo.

How crazy busy are our lives today? We are always on. Even moments of perceived inactivity are filled by our phones, social media and technologically delivered distractions. There is a powerful Buddhist philosophy that suggests our mind is like a pool of water; each interruption is like us throwing a pebble into the pool. Each pebble creates its own ripples. We are throwing pebble after pebble, stone after stone, handsfull of gravel. The surface of the water becomes so confused that we cannot see into the water. Be still. Let the ripples die down and the waters become clear. We owe it to ourselves and our work to be still. Find moments in the day for absolutely nothing. If you go for a walk or a run, leave the phone behind - I dare you!

A few years ago, while working on a community outreach program in South Sudan, I faced numerous challenges. To cope, I started journaling my daily experiences. This practice allowed me to reflect deeply and notice patterns and connections I had initially overlooked. For instance, I discovered that integrating traditional storytelling, a local cultural practice, could significantly enhance our program's effectiveness. Regular reflection turned seemingly unrelated ideas into innovative solutions. Journaling helped me see the bigger picture and taught me that reflection is crucial for creativity, allowing past ideas to be revisited and reimagined.
