Creation and creativity: that’s the way to go

Many people’s dreams and ideas never see the light of day because they rely so much on the outside world for them to function.

“IF I had asked what people wanted, they would have said they wanted better horses and I gave them an automobile.” – Henry Ford.

Henry Ford was a true entrepreneur and a visionary who believed so much in the picture he had in his mind that he didn’t have to wait for the approval of others. Many people’s dreams and ideas never see the light of day because they rely so much on the outside world for them to function. The trouble with this reliance on the outside world is that no one can see what you see in your mind, feel the intensity of it and later suffer the regret of wondering what would have happened had you tried it out. You don’t need to be an entrepreneur to make a difference in the world, just be the best at whatever you are. To be the best, you need to get rid of the attitude of doing what’s just enough for you get by; no, this is mediocrity.

Vincent van Gogh, another greatest painter, once said. “When I sleep I dream my painting and when I wake up, I then paint my dream.” This tells us about the power of having a clear picture of what you want to do in life, irrespective of whether it makes sense to others or not; it’s about you. Your life can be likened to a clay that can be used to mould anything you wish. Sadly, most people die with the clay having never been used because they copy other peoples’ models instead of focusing on what’s in them in a form of a desire.

Your dream has long been calling you, now is the time for you to SWITCH ON your personal power and answer the call.
