You’re more creative than you think. Imagine I asked you to use your creativity and get $50,000 in my hands by next month. Does that seem impossible to you?
Now imagine I was threatening the life of a loved one. Does that $50,000 seem so unattainable now? I promise you could find ways to get that money. You’d use massive creativity and make it happen. You might not even have to break any laws.
The human brain is much more creative than we give it credit for. The problem isn’t the capacity for creativity. The problem is the motivation and desire.
How badly do you want to create something that matters? What’s motivating you to do it? If you don’t feel like your life depends on it, you’re missing out on some of your potential.
What if you created like your life depended on it? Imagine your potential if you take your art that seriously. There’s no limit to the extraordinary things you could accomplish. Your art could have a lasting impact on this and future generations.
Add a bit urgency to your creativity. See what happens.
