The Life-Changing Magic of Rediscovering Creativity as an Adult

Описание: When we’re young, we’re encouraged to play, learn new things and express our creativity in endless ways. As we grow up, we find out that we can’t carry that same energy into adulthood - that society places an expiry date on learning new things. If you’re a grown up, it’s time to be responsible, serious, predictable - there’s no room for play and discovery.

Not only is that no fun at all, it also robs us of two things that make life worthwhile - curiosity and creativity.
Meeting life with an attitude of curiosity is one of the distinguishing characteristics of a successful life, but we’re often taught to block ourselves off from that.

The good news is, we can interrupt this pattern and bring unexpected curiosity into our daily lives. But first, we have to welcome creativity with both arms, and be okay with things being messy and unpredictable.

How do we make room for expression and creativity? How do we break away from feeling like we’re too old for play and discovery? In this episode, we talk about how to get back in touch with creativity, and why it leads to a more enriched life.


Things You’ll Learn In This Episode

Continuum of choice vs. limited options
As a society, we have a tendency for polarities and limiting ourselves to either-or choices. How do we open up the possibility for so much more?

Open your fan, express your creativity
Creativity is something we all have but we have to break out of our routines to find it. How do we find what makes life feel like a celebration, rather than a duty?

Why creativity is scary
Many of us are uncomfortable with the messiness of creativity because it’s the opposite of the perfect persona we created for love and approval. How do we embrace the messiness from a place of safety?
