A little bit from creativity

Creativity is not about arranging a room, doing a ritual, taking a pill, or being inspired. Creativity is about trying new things knowing that you can possibly fail. Creativity is about getting up and start doing things differently without the fear of failing. Creativity is a process of getting unattached from people’s opinions, from the status-quo, and from what everyone around you is already doing. Creativity is going into a journey through the Sahara dessert riding a camel through the unpredictable dessert, at night, and without a map. Creativity is having a goal in mind but not an established way to get to that destination; a journey through the Sahara desert where you only have a star to follow in the silent night, where the path is never the same, and where you explore new ways to reach your destination. There is not such a thing as inspiration itself, the camel rider doesn't wait until he feels inspired to start travelling, instead, his willingness to get to the destination and his ability to focus in the star, his camel, and the unpredictable path are the things that allow him to get successfully where he wants to go. Inspiration is the willingness to do something combined with concentration on the task. Anyone of us can do great things, so if you think that you are not a creative person is because you are not trying either because you don't want to, or because you are afraid to people's opinions or to do things differently from what people is already doing it. Therefore, if you don't like your life as it is right now, see the resources you have in your hands, knowledge, contacts, material resources, and from there try to look for a destination better than where you are now and always watch that star. Always watch that star, start riding the camel of your resources, don't be afraid to hear from people that you might die crossing the dessert, and start taking the different path. When you start stop worrying about what is "good"or "wrong" and you start worrying on seeing the resources you have and from there start doing new things, magic happens. Allow yourself to do things differently, that will change the world around you.
