7. ABOUT “LIMITLESS”
We are limitless.
Limitless is the mindset that we have and need. Entering a world that is
filled with boundaries, we will not be restricted. Inspired by the world of art
and creative expression, we found we are endlessly inspired to go and
create. When we create, there is no stopping.
At our core, we are limitless.
LIMITLESS: CREATIVITY UNLEASHED
8. Limitless embodies the passion, courage, and conviction to push boundaries and creatively
express, challenge, and inspire others to expand their thinking beyond the norm.
PASSION
Being Limitless means having a strong belief or message and a passion that propels one to
create and share their perspective with the world.
COURAGE
Being Limitlessness requires courage to think beyond social construction and the physical and
mental boundaries that confine you. Courage enables you to Unleash Creativity without
worrying about how it will be received, and being confident within oneself.
CONVICTION
Being limitless involves surmounting barriers and utilizing experiences from the past to live in the
present to create a brighter future. A limitless individual must have the conviction and endur-
ance to believe in their passion and creativity to see their vision through.
Limitless is having the freedom to explore and foster creative visions that can entertain, edu-
cate and galvanize people to act. Limitless is about perception and the way we interpret
and engage with our environment. Looking beyond physical and mental obstacles, a limitless
individual acts as an innovator and creator to find a way to express their point of view with
others.
The professors at Dodge College at Chapman University encourage the students to come
forth with a limitless mindset. With their experience and knowledge, the professors educate our
students to trust in their artistic freedom and have limitless boundaries in expressing themselves.
We honor the students featured in tonight’s Cecils 2014 who have pushed the boundaries in
their ability to express themselves and communicate their vision through different mediums,
bringing their innovative ideas to life through art and truly demonstrating we are limitless and
bound only by our creativity.
