]]> Creative Mind Explained

 
Have you tried to come up with something absolutely original for whatever quest you might have had in mind and failed? It happens to all of us. Overworked or overrested, we can’t produce a suitable idea to support a project, which is our priority at the moment. Besides, not all of us are equally creative. Right? Maybe not…

 
“In business, being creative is all about thinking differently and looking at the world from a different perspective. Its not about being the next Picasso but rather finding out-of-the-box and unique solutions. Its all about your ability to look at things from a totally different point of view and headspace – at the end of the day its all about seeing things in unique and creative ways.”  Very important: “Be really clear about what it is you are trying to achieve” and “ask a child for a point of view”.  Read more and learn here:  Productivityplanner.com

 
We all employ different techniques to reach a goal of a “Mission accomplished” statement. 
Luciano Passuello, the author of Litemind.com shares his 100 tips on how to have the job done, here: Tackle Any Issue with a List of 100.  Just read the article and you’ll come out of the creative block you are in (if you are, of course).
The site also have articles on the motivation, brainstorming, visualization skills.

 
And here is a quote for you to ponder on:
“Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand”.
Albert Einstein

]]> As the saying goes “Where there’s a will, there’s a way”. 

The following exerpt is from AARP Bulletin:

 
“Designing Woman.
New Zealander Ruby Fowler, 88, got mad when she went shopping for a dress and found only plunging necklines and hems above the knee. Then she decided to take action. A widow and retired school teacher, Fowler has started her own clothing line:45+Frocks for the Mature. “If something doesn’t please me and I want it done wright, I’ll do it myself if necessary,” she says. The Christchurch resident plowed $3,000 into her business and is soliciting sales at local nursing homes. Her designs feature sleeves, below-the-knee hemlines and coat dresses.”
(Via paper edition of www.AARP.org  Bulletin)

 
The moral: Don’t just dream, do it.

]]> The site, which I’ve discovered today, features articles on a productivity planning, which is directly connected with how we perceive and organize ourselves. I would like to bring to your attention two of the featured articles:
1. Article by Ryan Eliason, where he talks about procrastination and gives really good recommendation on how to deal with it.
He says: “Every time you define a new project or outcome, or set a goal, immediately define the first step. Ask yourself, “What’s the next action?”
That is when we think of a project to do, we think of it in general terms, which include to many undefined steps, instead of defined actions. We don’t have next action planned. That means, our thought “I need to clean up the house”, which is an outcome, should be “I need to clean up the garage, sweep up the porch, vacuum the dining room, etc.”, which is not so overwhelming, when consists of a few smaller tasks.
You may read an article here:

2. The link below takes you to a very interesting article, where Sharon Teitelbaum, author of “Getting Unstuck Without Coming Unglued: Restoring Work-Life Balance,” is talking about our self appreciation, our goals and taking credit for our achivements by communicating with our inner selves, first.
