NEED SOME
CREATIVE
INSPIRATION?

#1. Stories

“D!"’# b$ %&#'%($) w'#*
%#!r'$%, *!w #*'"+% *&v$
+!"$ w'#* !#*$r%. U"f!,)
-!.r !w" /-#*.” ―
R./', E%%$"#'&, R./'

Rumi asks us not to remain in the comfort zone
and be satisfied with the status quo.

R./' 0*&,,$"+$% -!. #!
%#$p '"#! #*$ +&/$ !f
-!.r ,'f$ &") #! b$0!/$
&" &0#'v$ p&r#'0'p&"#.

It is a call-to-action to do something momentous
with your unique experience and your life.

“N! "#$$%r w&#$ '!(r #)% !r '!(r
*+f% p#$&, w&%$&%r "#,+-) #r$ +. '!(r
/#r%%r !r '!(r &!bb' !r '!(r

YOUR
STORY?

#2. Perspective

“Y!. 0&" "$v$r %!,v$ &
pr!b,$/ !" #*$ ,$v$, !"
w*'0* '# w&%
0r$&#$).”―
A,b$r# E'"%#$'"

Look at the problem with a new pair of eyes

ARE YOU DOING THINGS
DIFFERENTLY AND
CHANGING THE
PERSPECTIVE?

#3. Imagination

“I/&+'"&#'!" '% #*$ b$+'""'"+ !f
0r$&#'!". Y!. '/&+'"$ w*&# -!.

Unleash your creativity by
imagination and daydreaming

imagination +
determination +
desire to launch =
CREATIVE
POWER

#4. Self-Doubt

“The worst
enemy to
creativity is
self-doubt.”
― Sylvia Plath, The
Unabridged Journals of
Sylvia Plath

By endlessly doubting an amazingly creative mind that we all
possess, we effectively shut down the creative process.

ARE YOU
DOUBTING YOUR
CREATIVITY?

#5. Fear

“1$-’r$ !",- 0r&-!"%.
Y!. )')"’# f$&r #*$/ '"
K'")$r+&r#$", w*- f$&r
#*$/ "!w?” ― H.+*
M&0L$!)

Acknowledge that fear is always going to be
there...take creative action regardless of the fear.

#6. Mistakes and Failure

“Cr$&#'v'#- '% &,,!w'"+ -!.r%$,f
#! /&2$ /'%#&2$%. Ar# '%
2"!w'"+ w*'0* !"$% #! 2$$p.” ―
S0!## A)&/%

This is the little secret
that all masters have
perfected. They know
that great things are
not built overnight but
with sm...

mistake =
retake

ARE YOU GIVING
YOURSELF
PERMISSION TO
MAKE MISTAKES AND
TAKE
RETAKES?

#7. Rationalizations

“!" #$%"f "&"'( )f
#r"*+%v%+( %, -)).
,"&,".” ― P*b/)
P%#*,,)

do not put off creativity for
later...

when the muses strike, be ready...

“I ,%p$ r%#/&+-) f!r "' "(.%., "'
w#-0%r+-) "(.%., 3!#$+-) !-
/*!(0. 1**%0 w+$& $&%+r
p#..+!-..”― C&+"-%.% D#v+0.,
M(.%. !...

WHEN THE
INSPIRATION
STRIKES, BE
READY!

#8. Courage and Risk

“W$ *&v$ #! 0!"#'".&,,- b$
3./p'"+ !ﬀ 0,'ﬀ% &") )$v$,!p'"+
!.r w'"+% !" #*$ w&- )!w".” ―
K.r# V!""$+.#

ARE YOU
STRETCHING
INTO THE
ZONE OF
CREATIVE
DISCOMFORT?

ARE YOU TAKING
CREATIVE RISKS?

#9. Action and Practice

“Y!. 0&"’# .%$ .p
0r$&#'v'#-. 1$ /!r$
-!. .%$, #*$ /!r$ -!.
*&v$.”― M&-&
A"+$,!.

Creativity is a
muscle
waiting to be
flexed.

CREATIVE
ACTION = USE

#10. Immersion and Flow

“F!r #r$ $! 4+.$, f!r #-' .!r$ !f
#%.$&%$+/ #/$+v+$' !r p%r/%p$+!- $!
4+.$, # /%r$#+- p&'.+!*!)+/#*

Flow = We
deeply practice
something
difficult at the
edge of our
ability with
immersion and
engagement.

“E-7!'"%-$ #pp%#r. #$ $&% b!(-0#r'
b%$w%%- b!r%0!" #-0 #-8+%$', w&%-
$&% /&#**%-)%. #r% 7(.$ b#*#-/%0 w+$&
$&% p%r.!-'. /#...

ARE YOU
EXPERIENCING
MOMENTS OF
FLOW?

#11. Limitations

“B.# !.# !f ,'/'#&#'!"%
0!/$% 0r$&#'v'#-.”―
D$bb'$ A,,$"

Creativity needs a framework or a
structure to work within.

“Cr$&#'v'#- '% &
%p!"#&"$!.% 5p$r'/$"#
w'#*'" & %#r.0#.r$) &")
,'/'#$) fr&/$w!r2.”

STRUCTURE+RULES+
LIMITATIONS + OUTLINES =
GOOD FOR
CREATIVITY

DO YOU HAVE RULES
AND
LIMITATIONS THAT
DEFINE YOUR
CREATIVE PROCESS?

#12. Allowing

“If !",- w$ 0!.,) p.,,
!.# !.r br&'" &") .%$
!",- !.r $-$%.”―
P&b,! P'0&%%!

Take a deep breath and gently apply the brakes
to the thinking and judging mind. Replace
thoughts of worry with the possib...

ALLOW
DON’T WORRY...JUST
CREATE

YOUR CREATIVITY
TO
FLOURISH?
