A giant YES on your wall
Reading some reviews of Eric Maisel's book "The Creativity Book", I came across this idea from Lee Silber, author of "Career Management for the Creative Person" -
"Reading this book is like putting a giant yes on the wall."
This struck me as such a powerful and visual phrase and made me realise again the power of "giving yourself permission" to be creative.
So put a giant "YES" on YOUR wall and think about all the things you'd like to say yes to around your creativity, but don't because of some fear or doubt or other.
Add this list of things around the word yes.
Say YES to writing your novel. Say YES to taking up painting landscapes again. Say YES to getting your guitar out of your attic and playing some of your old songs again. Say YES to starting a new project in an area you've never tried before.
Whatever creative project you've been thinking about beginning, give yourself permission today and put a giant YES on YOUR wall!

As a Creativity Coach I work with people who are frustrated that their creative talents are underused.
