Weekly Whimsy

Hello, !
Yes! You are
creative!!!
In a previous Whimsy, we looked at your creative spark of brilliance. Creativity is a part of you and is always present in your life.
This time, let’s look at how handy creativity is. You are probably being creative every day and don’t even realize it!
You may have grown up thinking that creativity is for those who are painters, writers, or designers and finding it difficult to
think differently. Creativity is much larger than we give it credit for.
Creativity is in how you solve problems. It is the way you make decisions and the way you bring joy to your life every day.
Here are six examples:
1. When you cook a new recipe and don’t have everything stated in the recipe. It is time to substitute ingredients with what you have.
2. Scheduling your tasks for the day.
3. When you find a new way to organize your schedule to fit in better with your family, friends, and
yourself.
4. How about when you handle a tricky conversation and find a solution?
5. Brainstorming for
a project.
6. How about deciding what you will wear for the day for a particular activity or project?
Creativity
is about looking at life with a fresh perspective. It is something we all do, and we do it every day.
Here is a challenge for you this week:
Take notice and write down five creative moments in your daily life.
It can be how you tackle a task. Look at the way you put together different foods for a meal. Another idea is how you entertain yourself or others.
As you open up and start looking, you will see creativity is all around you and how creative you truly are!
If you start to see more, have fun adding those
too!
I would love to hear what you have begun to notice.
In the next Whimsy, we will look into the wonderful benefits of creativity for your beautiful brain and overall well-being.
For those who celebrate the Canadian Thanksgiving this coming week, this will be a time when creativity will overflow! Watch how you and others shine creatively! You just can’t
help it! No one can. It just happens. It is how we have been created. It is a natural gift we have all been born with. Just take notice and be in awe, filled with gratitude for this creative you!
Have a blessed and fabulous Thanksgiving!
May your life be filled with creativity, gratitude, love, joy and whimsy!
