Only when we are able to start thinking for ourselves can we then start to create unique ideas. Thinking outside the box is actually knowing who we are inside and our ideas and thoughts are inspired by knowing who we are and recognising our individuality.
Creative people are often ones who have accepted their uniqueness, they are those who choose not to follow the regular patterns of others. Its in this desire to stand out, to push your ideas and thoughts through, that our imagination begins to have fun. The imagination is where we truly start to create, not just ideas but visions and dreams .
We have been taught that we should ignore our child like tendencies which are to dream or even to become excited about the impossible when in fact this is here where it all started in the beginning.
The dream of one day helping others by becoming a doctor or enjoying the creativity of being a musician or chief!
When we where young we did not know how to be or even become a doctor or musician but we simply followed and idea/dream created in our imagination. It was and is that simple! Therefore, the same implies to ourselves and our uniqueness. Read, learn open your mind to your ideas, learn not to shut out your inner voice the inner child which begs for you to listen once again.
Your imagination is one of our greatest tools when finding who you are...
