Before you can get to anything new: more, better or different, you have to be clear of what is the old, what is already there.
So upon preparing for today’s Prisonbreak workshop (at noon EDT) I wrote an article, quite somber, quite hopeless, highlighting and analyzing why it is hopeless to do anything to get people out of their prison.
While I was writing it, one of my students offered to be a sounding board for me.
I took him up on his promise, and after 85 minutes of talking we just hung up.
I took him through the ‘how it is’, the facts… visible and not visible facts. All the while keeping my eyes on what it is that I can do…
When you find yourself powerless, feeling like you can’t…
…that nothing can, nothing will work, the way I had been feeling, the way out is to look for what it is that you CAN do.
And that is what I did.
So instead of canceling today’s workshop, canceling made a lot of sense before the call, I now have a new challenge.
I’ll call it Creativity Challenge.
A process to learn to take charge of life through creativity. Through creative use of words. To learn the art and science of creating empowering interpretations.
What I hope for is more people in the challenge. For people to take advantage of my overwhelming desire to make a difference in the quality of their lives.
People, you can enroll whenever you can see that this is exactly what you needed. So I am going to talk a lot about what there is to do and why.
No one teaches this art… Roy Williams and other ad writers get closest… because that is what sells what they want to sell.
So ultimately this art is selling art. Selling yourself. Selling yourself on being powerful, that you can awaken and take advantage of your god-self… without ever lying, and without ever actually having to interfere with the physical reality.
Just words. To yourself.
Words that change you from feeling powerless, scared, cautious, holding back, resentful, and maybe angry to someone who can, someone who will, someone who will love it, even though before the challenge you would hate it.
What do you need to apply?
You need 20 bucks a month. And you need five minutes a day. Every day.
I’ll do the challenge with you, and thus gauge how hard it is, feel what it is that I need to say.
Your job will be to send me the result of your five minutes a day work. Every day. You can make an agreement that only weekdays… and I may approve of it…
Your words are the key to your life.
Your words define what you see… The better you are with your words, the better you are with life. The better you feel, the better actions you’ll take.
Tiny changes, but a lot of tiny results in big thing. That is why it’s a daily challenge… so you don’t expect yourself to do, say something big…
If you are interested, registration is open.
