I’d Be More Creative If…

Allen Ruppersberg why do we fail

And that little voice puts up roadblocks. Sometimes those roadblocks are real, but more often those roadblocks are completely constructed from nothing but irrational fear or the most basic of actions. Perhaps knowing that other people share many of the same silly roadblocks–and even knowing what some of them are–will help us all move through them.

So today’s post is simple. Let’s put it out there. Just complete the sentence “I’d be more creative if…”

I’ll start us off. I’d be more creative if I more regularly created the quietness in my life that creativity requires.

Now it’s your turn.

    I’d be more creative if I didn’t feel guilty over the time it sometimes takes trying to be creative….. yeah…. I’ve got to get over the excuses. Focus more, worry less. Good topic.
