Inspired Dreamers Versus Deluded Nutcases

Each of us have arenas in our life where we’re often struck with inspiration and see possibilities that don’t yet exist.  Inspiration is good because it allows you to see beyond what's real into the depths of possibilities -- and in doing so, we also touch the divine. 

The problem for some of us, or maybe all of us some of the time, is when we get caught up in deluded fantasy instead.  If inspiration is the divine, then fantasy is the hell dimension that drags us away from our live and into its pit.

Every weakness is a potential strength

When I look back on my life, I realize I've made some whopper mistakes that are all traceable back to my weaknesses.  As much as I’d like to blah, blah, blah about the value of experience, I’d rather avoid mistakes in the first place.

How to do, how to do.  Then it hit me…life-changing epiphany.

Every weakness is a strength. 

I realized however deep my failures are indicate the height of my possible success.

Warning: Rebels die (but awakeners live)

Ernest Terry, one of my old Exxon bosses and a savvy corporate player, once said, “The problem with rebels is they either die in the fight or are shoved put aside when it’s over. New regimes need builders and not destroyers.”

Ernest's wisdom has stayed with me a decade or so later because It's. Absolutely. True.

As “they” say, change is the only constant in life.  Another truism is change is always stressful, even when it’s welcome, because change always, always requires some form of sacrifice.  The magnitude of stress escalates, though, when change is imposed. 

If you're like me and are a natural change agent, then how do you handle yourself to avoid the fallout of being a rebel while still being true to your nature?  Let's talk strategies to be welcomed as an awakening change agent.

Strategies to stimulate creativity and leave control in the dust

I blogged previously on the Control  Versus Creativity Continuum and how favoring control can lead to turning your life radioactive.  In contrast, though, creativity is a good news energy that you can use as your personal nuclear fusion reactor -- and that's the sort of energy that powers the stars.

Being a reformed controloholic, I have a strategy to share that I learned from my friend Amanda that provides a dandy and practical way to maintaining a creativity mindset.

Control versus Creativity – A Continuum

Have you ever been accused of having control issues?  If you say no (as in never ever), then get ready for my finger to point back at you.  Everyone has some arena in their life where control issues erupt.

Some of us deal with control power issues more than others like…er….me.

It took a bunch of awareness and flippity floppitiness of attitude but I’ve moved away from control to embrace influence, a.k.a. empowerment. 

And yahoo because my personal results with influence are much better than I ever scored with control.  People don't like latter....you already know that.  However, they don't mind being influenced just so long as they can make their own decisions.

My good friend Amanda gave me the secret that I’m going to share with you.  Let’s dish.
